How can be that it's totally empty?, it's some kind of preproduction item?

Seems that Piru's tool identifies the exact 060 rev., how is this done?, does the CPU has an internal signature?

It's really tempting; but my A3000 has no way to be pushed past 50Mhz, at least without changing ZIP rams and my A1200/Blizzard 1260 has no socket :(

Really tempting!

But...this damned Blizzard has also a SIMM socket absolutely flat and the SIMM itself lays over the CPU. Install a socket and you'll not be able to insert the SIMM; so, a SIMM socket replacement is also a must. If you can also perform this mod I'll check if there's enough space in the trapdoor slot to fit both socket+CPU and angled SIMM.

I'm afraid so, IIRC the 060 has a tight fight, raise it 3-4mm and the trapdoor never close again :(
It's a bit scaring to solder the CPU; but it's up to Cosmos and their skills :)
