there is a little PD program on the new Fred Fish CDROM which does the
refresh speedup hack if you really do have 60ns ram in your A4000. I
tried it on my A4000 with 80ns ram and, as it warned, it crashed
immediately. If you want to use this little speedup program (a few
percent gain, perhaps) you really DO need 60ns ram and it is
definitely more expensive. I concur with the judgement that you
should NEVER use parts which aren't up to spec if you want reliable
performance. Anything else is just experimental hacking.
