I guess some of you are luck with being able to get "*very" good support
from Zip...I guess I might count myself in the same boat...IF>>> I ever get
my 9mhz. 8k board...I ordered it on April 29th and have seen hide nor hair
of it...after waiting a week and calling back...I found they had not even
given me an invoice number yet...so they would 'ship it out next thursday'
well I have since called them twice and have gotten the same answer...I
guess it WILL be fast...I guess it WILL be fun...but my enthusiasm is
running about as thin as my patience.

My *eight*mz ZIP GS came in a week. I've noticed that the CPU is actually marked as *7mz*; I suspect that they've simply selected chips that work at eight for that option. For 9mz and 10mz they may actually have to get different chips, thus the delay. Anyway-- re: support: I had a cable problem with my unit; their customer service rep diagnosed it accurately over the phone and send a replacement immediately. I'm happy. ------------------------------------------------------------------ --- Paul Brandon Psychology Dept Mankato State Univ --- --- PKBRANDON@MSUS1.MSUS.EDU Mankato, MN 56001 --- ------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm sure you understand that finding 65816s over 7-8Mhz is pretty difficult. One of the major reason Apple has given for not making the GS faster. I had to wait a 2 weeks for the Zip v1.02 (8Mhz, 16K)... other people waiting for 10Mhz, 64K split cache will have a longer wait than you do... very likely.
