I've been doing some investigation into overclicking or "clock chipping" as it seems to be known in the techno geek community (no offense guys).

Apparently, you can take a standard Mac Plus and overclock the thang to 1 Gigahertz!! Blowing away the G3 and the Pentium II with speed to spare.

Apparently, the Mac Plus was over-engineered. There is is a jumper setting that you use to set the motherboard for 256 bit processing. How much is Merced? 64!

However, the drawback is you need 1 liter of liquid nitrogen to run this thing for one hour.

I'd like to make one just to hotrod around and show some of those Pentium II users!

As for the liquid Nitrogen, does anyone know anything about Nitrogen recycling systems on a small scale?
