Talking about mem, I forgot to ask which mem does it need ?
I read about DM250,- for 4MB, is this mem that is ok or something slower ?

And if anyone got another method than driving the turbo with
opened case, tell me.

The "open case" method remembers me to the NSU 1000TT, a quick
air cooled rear engine car of the 60's.
The drivers of tuned versions, or the ones driving the normal version
quite heavy ;) always left the enine-door open to prevent from
engine burning :)

Maybe future high-clocked computers will usse watercooling ? :D
Are there instructions where the board gets most hot ? :)

Someting blowing air into the PCMCIA port, combined with the
extension-slot-cover-plasitc removed, is that a solution ? :)
