HI All,

	I noticed upon opening up my VS3100/30 that the *only* changes between
it and the 'faster' VS3100/40 are the clock (66.6666 MHz vs 44.4444 MHz) and
a jumper. This is down to the chip part number.

	The cost of the 66 MHz osc is about $10 so when I find one I'll give it
a try.

	My questions are:

	Who has done this?

	What is the max clock freq that could be used?

	Do you need additional cooling above 66 MHz?

	What componet typicaly fails first as you raise the clock?
