Without local ram at the same speed, the extra MHz won't be doing much.

I'd go with the 020 for the reasons you stated.  The tiny cache on the ICD will help some, but not very much.

He's got a much faster 030 and without ram running at the CPU speed, even that's not a huge improvement.

At least with the 020 you get the newer instructions plus a math co.
