About the '030 vs 040. Note that the first generation 040 chips are 25Mhz.
These should just drop into a 25 MHz system. The dead products are the >>
25 Mhz '030 systems, why do all that EXPENSIVE extra engineering when the
next CPU doesn't need it. For my money (and I would have put my deposit
down today if my local dealer had a firm price for the 100MB box!) CA made
the right decision to keep the base cost of the box low and then, I hope,
kill the competition with an equally low cost upgrade when 040s ship in
quantity.
By the way, when are you shipping C Toolbox, my check cleared some weeks
ago?
Kevin, re the toolshed, we've been shipping for some time. I don't find a
record of your order – better email me the details and I'll UPS BLue it to
you immediately. Don't know what happened!
ok, a 25 mhz 040 will drop in for a 25 mhz 030.
So, a 40 Mhz 040 would drop in for a 40 mhz 030. Better. :^)
