Then perhaps a better approach would be to find whatever the serial chip
uses as its clock, and feed it 162Mhz, and run the rest of the system at
the maximum that it will support (or find a multiplier for the serial
chip, etc... But I take it this is a custom Apple chip, not a regular
SCC?) Maybe if it were possible to reverse engineer the driver and write
a new serial port and sound drivers with new clock values? (I've seen
some SCC's that have software selectable clocks...)
