- : There is no difference. The board supports 16MHz and 25MHz operation.

- I think there was a significant price diference betwen the 25mhz and
- 16mhz version... Would have been nice that the 16mhz offer socket, and
- optionaly a 68882.
-
- I guess I was just thinking of the simplicity of upgrading in the PC world.
- move a jumper, change the chip and you go from a 75mhz cpu to 150mhz, even
- so all motherboard operation stay at 50,25mhz. But what I say hold true
- if I had a 16mhz A3000 :)
-
- So no 'DX2' type 68030 for easy upgrade?
