	I don't know about other companies that sell these.  But as a
suggestion to finding one, keep a lookout for some of the upgrade cards,
e.g. 040 upgrades for 040s and 030s, and the Radius Rocket (040 card that
acted as a second processor in the PDS slot that worked only on older MacOS
systems, pre 7.5 I believe).  [I think this tip is suggested on some of the
macbsd.com pages, but it's been a while since I've looked there.]
	Check to be sure, but most of these had full 040s that you could
pull, and at least the Radius Rocket was going for pretty cheap (less than
$40) since it only worked with those older versions of MacOS.
	Of course, there's the dead logicboard that you can pull one from
too, but that's getting a little risky.

	Good luck hunting!
