  Interesting concept...kind of reminds me of days gone by, and things I
did to amigas to leverage that extra little bit from them (without the
spending of a big bit of money associated with the commercial
alternatives ;) I recall having an 'addspeed' board for an a1000 that used
to sit precariously atop the existing onboard m68k socket, and unless it
was sitting at exactly the right angle, would no function. I remember
there was much happiness when I discovered big lumps of bluetack could
hold the board in such a place...until summertime..
