- >ROMS?!?!? Are there ROMS available for the 3000 now?
-
- There have been for quite some time. 2.0 roms are required to opperate
- any sort of an 040 processor.

- >a while?
-
- You would kick 1.3 into ram as others do now with any sort of
- accellerator.
-
- >Is boot time any faster?
-
- You won't have the first reboot at all in the startup procedure, although
- you'll probably want to kick it into Fast ram anyways.
-
- Unless you are planning on picking up an 040, you don't need a ROM.
