I would/wouldn't like a production run of 060's

060 is quite a lot better than 040.  After I got my 060 I gave my 040 machine away.

Well I just recently got my first 040@40 (which I got to upgrade to 060@66)  and can tell you it's 3X as fast as my 030@50 and have seen no compatability errors in WHDload that I've been hearing about for years.
I've had it in my desktop running for days with no issues and the CPU barely gets warm to the touch (mind you it has a small fan on it & my case has another fan).

@ nicholas

thanks for the links as they'll come in in handy when I do the 040 to 060 upgrade; however, my previous post was based on just using my 040@40 and I must admit I'm surprised as I've read so many negative comments about the 040 boards.

You're welcome.

Even with the 040 installed you can install Thor's 68040.library, mmu.library, MuRedox, CopyMem and TLSFMem.

Then when you put the 060 in you just need to install Thor's 68060.library, power off, install the 060 and power on. Job done!

There is also an 040 version of the HSMathLibs. I had them when I was using a WarpEngine 040@40MHz and just bought another licence of the 060 version when i upgraded to a CSMK2 060@50MHz as they are quite cheap and really worth the money.

great stuff! I have only installed Thor's 040 library & mmu.library so far but will try the others soon:drink:
