  I just asked my instructor at Dev Camp the same question. He said that
only boards made from the Color Station on contain the chip to allow it to 
power on. (Can be set in preferences). I upgraded my cube to a 25 MHZ 040
and it does not qualify. I presume the Turbo boards/machines and the NeXT
Station Color will allow this.
