- Yes. However, the ones labeled "Model 4000" and "Model 8000" will NOT
- work with a RamFast. Other than that, no problems.

-
- Not at all. The TransWarp only goes up to 3.6mhz, whereas the Zips go
- 4 and 8mhz.

- My advice: If the machine you have now does what you want it to do, then
- you don't need any other. If, however, you are using it for a 2nd
- machine, then by all means, get the Zip Chip at least. As far as cheap
- hard drives go, you'll be doing good to find a 20meg for less than $150.
