- Sounds to me like some miscommunication. It's obviously going to be an 68030
- on 40 _MHz_, not an 68040. Hence the A1200/40.. It wouldn't really make
- much sense either since the 68060 is more suited than the 68040 because of
- it's lower power consumption and lesser heat problems. Also it is actually
- cheaper to make than an 040 or so I'm told, at least once it ships in
- volume (if at all...).
