Very cool!

Has anyone tested a 80Mhz Apollo 060 yet?

If an ACA2000 is introduced this could get interesting.
With RTG could an A2000 run MorphOS or OS4?

It's a wonder they didn't include a PCI slot or two on that puppy.

Cool to see that it's possible but not very practical.

Nice.  However, the A500 has a 16-bit data bus and the BlizzardPPC uses a PowerPC 603e (64-bit bus) crippled to a 32-bit data bus.  The BlizzardPPC would be better suited for an A1200, A3000, or A4000.

That would be a nice addition to MorphOS.
It would help a lot of programs run.
Along with the sound driver Xdelusion has asked for, it could give us an additional measure of compatibility.

Bounties anyone?
