I actually have two. I'll pack them with it.
One is broken, I don't know how or why, it used to work, then it
stopped. It plugged into one of the slots on the MB. I think I had two
megs of RAM in it. For some reason my network card wouldn't work when
the accel was enabled, so I left it off most of the time (IIRC, it had a
switch you could route to the outside of the case). The NIC is staying
in my A3000.
The other is a VLX/30 (?). It plugged into the 68000 CPU slot. This one
didn't have any RAM on it, so some stuff actually ran *slower* on it,
due to how it accessed the main memory. If you could find the RAM card
for it, things would definately speed up with it.
More closet digging in my future.
