[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Processor Direct Slot on ci

datta@cpsc.ucalgary.ca (Darik Datta) (03/23/90)

  I am a little curious about the processor direct slot on the ci (and
the fx, I think..)  can it be used to upgrade the CPU... The 030
on the ci is not socketed, and the 040 probably isn't pin compatible
anyway, and I was wondering if a CPU upgrade board could make use
of the PD slot to speed things up without the bottleneck of NuBus.
Is it possible to disable the main 030 and replace it using the
PD Slot??

  Thanks in advance...
