Well, i thought a cheap cpu for the Apollo would be nice, so i bought most of these cpu:s from Corrie.
What a big mistake...
Not only are they NOT the same cpu as found on Apollo 1260/75 (a lie in the auction description..) they dont work with Apollo turbocards.
Now the seller says: "Just because they are not working with the apollo cards, is no reason for me to take them back."

So, be warned, never buy a MC68EC060RC75 for use with ANY amiga accelerator card and dont buy anything from Corrie...

Seller escalated this dispute to a Claim.

The CPUs are clearly marked 'EC' versions which mean no FPU or MMU. The buyer after purchasing has told me that he needs 'LC' versions of the CPUs for his particular setup. I have clearly marked the CPUs as EC version to which the buyer has bought them. www.amiga-hardware.com, processors, EC68060, states This processor has never been used as the base processor in any Amiga, or accelerator card although it should be almost 100% compatible. I did not give any guarentees to the buyer that these cpus will work with his setup nor can I be expected to as it would depend on his RAM, motherboard version etc. At no stage have I offered refunds or guarentees.

I want to return these cpu:s because they dont work with Apollo 75Mhz accelerator cards. From the auction description: Quote: "These CPUs are the ones found on the Apollo 75Mhz accelerator cards." I have found ot that these cpu:s are NOT the same as found on the Apollo 75Mhz accelerator cards and dont work with them or any other Apollo card.  

Corrie: so now you admit that this cpu has never been used in any amiga accelerator card?
Why advertise them on amiga.org?
