Istallation on certain 1040 ST motherboards is not as simple as
following the instructions with AdSpeed.  I found this out the hard
way.  If your 1040 motherboard has the 68000 underneath the keyboard
AdSpeed will fit ONLY if you do not use the socket and solder AdSpeed
directly to the motherboard.  You will also need to cut a hole in your
RF shield above the AdSpeed (or remove the RF shield altogether).  By
doing this I have about 1 mm clearance between the keyboard and the
AdSpeed.

It took me several phone calls to ICD before the ST "support" person
(Howard) finally connected me to the customer service rep. (Wendy).
He informed me what needed to be done on the first call, but I wanted
ICD to do the fix since it was an error in their installation guide.
Wendy was agreeable to my request however all Howard seemed to want to
