Chuck Rickard asks about the 16MHz upgrade for the ST:

It's from FaST technologies, and it does what it says.  Previously
released upgrades only increased the speeds a small amount, but this one
increases it to a full 16MHz because it has caching.  It really works, I
saw it run Flight Simulator II, and it refreshed the screen without
hardly any delay at all!  It is compatible with the Spectre and PC
Ditto.  For installation, you must remove the 68000, and place the
accelorator board (which is the same size as the 68000) under a new
16MHz 68000.  The above were quotes from the sales person.  One thing I
must point out is that while I was there, a man came up and wanted to
run a Fractal program he had written (not compiled) in Fourth.  The
program would not run (I cannot remember the error), but this makes it
seem as if there may be incompatability problems.

There are other 16MHz upgrades, but the spolesperson said that none of
them use caching, so they do not increase the speed to a full 16MHz as
this one is supposed to.
