Distributors could install the cpus you send them, they could even buy a small batch of chinese 060 cpus, test them and install them in the boards

There are also new rohs compliant 060 chips without MMU nor FPU (68EC060FE133 sounds cool). AFAIK these 060 chips should work on AmigaOS too.

Natami systems already run AmigaOS on them.


a 68EC060/133 would be a nice upgrade, even without a SATA controller (perhaps it's possible to add a cheap buffered PIO PATA controller faster than the onboard ide based on Buddha like he plans to do with ACA520).

The 68EC060FE133 is a re-labeled chip. Motorola or Freescale never made a 133 MHz 060.


AFAIK It reaches 100Mhz without any cooling so that is fine for me.
