The clip fits over the 68000 chip. My understanding is that the original 68000 chip is electrically disabled (so that it doesn't get *very hot* under the clip).

I have not seen the new model Hyperdrive, but I have seen the clip and discussed its application. -- Ephraim Vishniac [apollo, bbncca, cadmus, decvax, harvard, linus, masscomp]!wanginst!vishniac vishniac%Wang-Inst@Csnet-Relay
