Donald,
you can use almost any crystal up to 20 Mhz
using different then what originally you need
will effect on speed only you need to adjust your
delay routine. you do not have to use any crystal eider
use RC. you can also use your signal generator as well
make sure you have sign wave or can based oscillator.

This is actually an interesting question.
Does it have to be a sine wave like a xtal's? Or will a square wave
work?
Description for the OSC1/CLKIN pin is: "Oscillator crystal
input/external clock source input"
Anybody used a squarewave or any other logic clock source?

Works fine. Check the spec though, for levels, rise and fall times, and
duty-cycle.
Old trick on the Z-80 was to run it on an asymmetrical clock, which let you
speed it up quite a bit beyond it's max with a 50% duty cycle clock.

Where are you? Go down to RatShack and buy a 3.58 Mhz colorburst crystal.
It'll run a little slower, but should be just fine.

The Radio Shack color burst crystal is a special order.....not stocked.

I hate that RatShack no longer carries stuff like that in store. The strange
thing is that they do stock a whole bunch of 74HTC type logic.
One day I'll grow up and understand their practices.
Bummer.
