Subject: 50mhz cpu plug-in?

Anybody heard anything about such an animal?  At the local users's group
meeting last night, some fellow mentioned a 'replacement chip' or plug-in
type thing that goes in the cpu slot and turns your amiga into a 50mhz.
He didn't know WHICH amiga, and someone else said it wasn't 50mhz, but 60
or 100--but both agreed they'd heard it costs under 600 bucks.

This news comes just when I was thinking of buying a warp engine. I guess
I should pick up a magazine occasionally and thumb through it.

Reminds me:  last year, I got a print-out of a simple hardware hack for the
A3000 that allegedly transforms the floating point unit into a 50mhz
screamer.  (I know, 50mhz is hardly screaming, but to a 25mhz user, it
IS). Anybody know about this, or tried it, or fried their machine trying
it?

Thanks in a trance.
