Mike sez:

This may not be necessary: I emailed Sonnettech yesterday in the midst of this 
discussion to ask them about disabling the 512k Level 2 cache soldered on the Tsunami 
board and the requirement in the Sonnet manual for G3 & G4 processor upgrades that the 
1 meg L2 cache SIMM be removed if present on boards with a removable cache chip.

 I have TWO Tsunami-based computers, a 9600/233 with a 300 MHz NewerTech G3 card in it 
(for which I have a 450 Mhz G3 Sonnet card coming this week) and my trusty Daystar 
Genesis MP 800+ with the Sonnet 800 MHz G4 card in it. 

The Sonnettech response i received today was that Sonnet processor upgrade cards for 
PCI Macs are built to ignore soldered cache chips.

Maybe I'm amazed.
