   Won't any PCMCIA card successfully work with the accelerated Newts,
since the PCMCIA's clock signal is not generated by the main crystal?
Paul, for the accelerated Newts, would it be possible to patch (by
extension, not neccessarily by system patch) the global time functions
to "run slower"? Of course, this would mean the clock would then get
screwed up if you ran the Newt at "normal" speed, unless the extension
could detect it and compensate (rather unlikely to the percision you'd
need to keep it in sync).
