you will need a cpu , some type of socket , and a regulator to drop the voltage from 5v to 3.3v that 060 needs. if you have an PPC card don't need a regulator just a change of a choke jumper. As for someone that hasn't had ENOUGHT experience with  iron and desoldering : AGAIN FORGET IT ! or take it to someone that knows!.
As for speed improvement ... its just.... umbelivable!!!!
about 4 times the speed of the 040@25..

That fast huh? Nice.

I have soldered before, but not for a while and for medical reasons I couldn't solder if i tried right now!

Might be worth looking into in the future, though if/when OS4 comes out, it switches the 68k off and uses the PPC to emulate all 68k code, so I imagine it would be a waste to upgrade the 040 to an 040. Or would it not?

Thanks for your advice.

For me my classic migy will always run 3.9.. and maybe 4 but only for experience.. if software come out for 4 the our little 603 will be TOO little for the progies/demos..
For OS4 I'll buy an mA1 if it ever succed to be released and supported...
