Do many people have the ICD AdSpeed?
I recently put one in a Mega ST-4 with a Moniterm board and
it seemed to work pretty well. I left the machine on overnight
and it had crashed by morning. It seems that it crashed within
a few hours. The problem seems to be heat related, because the
system seems to get flakey after it's been on for a while.
Has anybody else experienced similar problems?

Mine was added to an old 520ST (w/2.5M). I can't speak for the installation into a Mega, but in a 520 there doesn't seem to be a heat problem. I run my ST for about 8 hours a day (as a terminal).

I just had a friend who bought an ad speed call me up too tell me that
ICD shipped him a dead 68K with the board!
That must suck.

I've had my Adspeed since just after the last Glendale show. Its in a mega 4 that runs 24 hours a day, no problems.
