The FRANCES board is a 32 bit 4mb memory board for the LUCAS. It can also remap the kickstart ram, which results in a tremendous boost in performance. My unit is a 20MHz 68020 w/881. It has been modified to hold a 68000 and can switch between the two (with a reboot, of course). In my machine, the combo has been very stable. The LUCAS alone was kind of flakey (I'm told the power runs are not very good), but the combination has no problems (I put the highest quality caps I could find on the FRANCES board. They seem to be enough to help out the LUCAS.) I don't know what the going price is. E-mail me and we can discuss it. Thanx – Chris
