I hear around certain speeds disk access to 800k floppies stops working
entirely. Later, all disk access is killed off. Dunno about serial ports
though. I would chip the 040 card by hooking the Speedy to the oscillator on
the card. Hopefully that will do the trick.

<< I had to lurk on ebay for quite a while to find one. Luckily, I wound
up with the complete package in original box. The Speedy attaches to
the CPU oscillator on the mobo, so I don't see how you could use it to
accelerate the 040 card itself...?
BTW, it easily ran my IIsi at 30 MHz+ (31.5 or 32.5 top speed, can't
remember which), but I didn't try using the serial ports. Does anyone
here have any direct experience (no hearsay, please) successfully using
serial ports on accelerated IIsi...? >>
