- Unfortunately, that deal ended on November 1. You can still upgrade,
- of course, but you have to pay the full difference in price between
- the two. That works out to $399 for an upgrade from the PowerCache
- 50/50 (with FPU) to the 33mhz Turbo '040, or $699 if you upgrade from
- the PowerCache 50 (no FPU) to the Turbo '040.

- While I'm at it, I should mention that the PowerCache adaptors for the SE
- and Classic II have been delayed some more, and the SE/30-specific
- PowerCaches should start shipping Real Soon Now.
