Now, why can't anyone do something like that to a 1400? Figure 16meg built
in, 32meg on the bottom and a 48 stacked on top. That's 96megs without anyone
making new ram. I hear it's the ROM that gives it this max, if so, why do
1400 upgrades still have this same restriction?

Still, intriguing. I'll bet you clocked your bus to 45MHz with a 80/40MHz
68040 installed. ;-)
That's exactly it.
The process is pretty much outlined here:

Although I would recommend that you don't try to unsolder the old 68LC040;

Now I definitely have to dust off my old 'Book!

DOesnt ring a bell. They did sell the quad doubler which was a
50 MHz clocked
part for desktop machines. I wonder if that is a CQFP part ?

OK, so it has been established that a naked battpack will fry. I just

recondition my existing battpack before I swap the cells out, after I swap,
or both? Is there a good way to crack open the battery case so that it can

It should be noted that the 68040's clock input runs at 2x the actual
