if anyone here believe that the 060 is 2 times faster than a 040 is because never had both cpus to compare

I had an apollo 1240/40 then I replaced by the apollo 1260/50...then I returned to the 040 because the 060 isn't compatible with anything old

I calculate 1.2x faster

The speed betewen  both cpus is not noticeable on workbench and not noticeable on most applications or games...

for example...quake on a 040 about 14 fps...on a 060  maybe 15 fps

alien breed 3d 2 ...on a 040 18fps...on a 060 19fps

The 2x times faster comparison was done years ago on magazines..it was a lie for marketing purpose

anyways that comparison was made betewen the 040/25 and the 060/50
