- True, the 060 can do 2 int instr per cycle but there isn t a 100 MHz 060.

- The Pentium Pro 200 MHz is 1600 US$ (1 of 1000)...
- I don t know the PPC prices except that the 603 is extremely
- cheap: 100 MHz for 150 US$ or so. May be some conclusions could be
- drawn if you compare PowerMac 603e and 604 prices?

-
- I hope that Amiga Technologies can produce a OS that runs on CHRP!
- There will be a lot of competition with CHRP and therefor nice
- prices :) .
