[rescue] Looking for broken IPX system board or chips

  Are you certain the pinout etc is the same?  I'd definitely not risk 
it without hard info like datasheets or a schematic.

  I think if one could drop a 16-context SS2 IU into an IPX, a lot of 
us would've done it back in the day, but it's not something I've ever 
heard of.

I'll look up datasheets, but I can tell you one good reason why you would want to be careful about a SS2 SPARC in an IPX - the CY7C601 doesn't have an onboard FPU and the IPX doesn't have a FPU socket, so you won't have floating point.
