- OK, before anyone flames this for sounding daft, I don't know much about
- chip connections and hardware generally but I was wondering wether it would
- be possible to plug a 68040 into an A1200. I realise it may need a host board
- or something but surely it wouldn't be that difficult for GVP or someone
- to come up with something, and as it wouldn't need extra 32 bit memory (as
- the A1200 has got it already) it should be fairly cheap compared to A500/2000
- '040 accelerators.
- Is this a daft idea, or is it a possibility ... If the latter what
- sort of price range would we be looking at (please quote in pounds sterling
- if possible as everyone seems to double the price of everything over here in
- England.
