i see your running OS 7.1, So Before and After, You said that it feels more responsive, on a percentage, how much faster?

i will say at least 15% more responsive than before, as i used a dip socket and managed to remove the old oscillator without any damage...i can try easily with the 40 Mhz and the 50 Mhz.

No Math CO installed.(not on this one at least, haven't tried with my other IIsi)

i am running 7.6.1 right now on my IIsi and it's sluggish!(in 256 color) If i change it to Black and White it speeds right up,

The inboard video is responsible for this (sharing the main system memory) and the fact that you are using SSW 7.6.1... 7.1 is pretty fast on the IIsi.

Also, what amount of memory are you using ?

As you have 5 units to play with, and parts to OC are really affordable (less than 5 $) it will be a shame not to have a try
