Just received this little marvel:
Can't wait to fit it, but it will be for a bit later...

Is that a 25MHz ARM3 CPU upgrade?

Re: Archie A3000 inbound
Just a quick update, but a nice one.
Had a day off today and was in the mood to fit the ARM3 upgrade in my A3000:
MEMC1 chip removed and solder pads cleaned.
Socket fitted.
ARM2 removed and solder pads cleaned.
Socket fitted.
ARM3 fitted and MEMC1 chip fitted back in its socket.
Good ! Nothing's broken and everything works.
What a difference in responsiveness... It's day and night.
:D

Socketing the MEMC? Are you thinking 8MB RAM upgrade in the Future?
