anybody need any 68040s

68050?  :-?  You have to share some of that stuff you're smoking.  

That said, the 68040 isn't bad.  It's much more powerful than the 68030 but they do run a bit hotter.  Although, I wouldn't say they overheat because a standard passive cooler will cool them just fine.

Umm, did you pull this one straight out of your ***?  What facts do you have to back this up?  I agree that a chip with fewer transistors would be more reliable in general.  But, we're talking years of advancing technology that would assume the newer chips are made better than the old ones?

Doommaster, your opinions are noted.  But, don't try to pass off your personal feelings as fact.  "In general", process improvements and technological advancements create better products.  Can you show me a car from the 50s or 60s that gets 60 MPG?  How about one that doesn't polute the environment even?

Anyway, back on topic.  I wish this auction was around when I bought my 040.  I think I paid $300 for the CPU alone.   :-o
