Anyways, with Tobias's TG68 and FPGAs getting better and better, soon we will be able to run a virtual 68060 at 250MHz or more using simple programmable logic chips.
Yeah right... NOT. Maybe in 10 years or so.
We can already run the 68000 at nearly 100MHz using cheap FPGAs.
They are hardly cheap, they still cost more (including an adapter PCB) than a real chip.
Due to the architecture, a 100MHz 68k would be lot slower than a 50MHz 060. Not to mention it doesn't have an MMU or FPU.
Add to that, Tobias's TG68, while a great achievment, is not 100% 68k compatible (yet).
