As an BPPC040/160e+, B1260 and CSPPC060/180 owner I want to put in my 2cents.

If it's an LC040 and the BPPC doesn't have SCSI then I do belive it have lost alot of it's appeal to me but the first question you should ask yourself is what are you going to do with the computer?

If it's mainly retro OS3.x and that's that then I would put all my $ on the B1260... that's what I did to my little "play and go around system".

If it's more heavy things you want to do... things that can take advantage of datatypes and the like, newer games and tools that can use PPC or you might have your hopes up for OS4 then go for the BPPC040. Especialy since it has the advantage of offering a graphiccard solusion for the A1200 without extra bussboards. I used my BPPC for my A1200T system.

But realy it's such a close call between the two I wouldn't want to the one to chuse and thank god I don't have to. :-D
