- The 68060 will not deliver 100 MIPS at 25Mhz, because its lowest speed
- will be 50Mhz. They are planning only 50Mhz and faster versions of
- the chip. Motorola quotes that, with an 060 aware compiler, a 50Mhz
- 060 will provide 3.5X the performance of a 25Mhz 040.
- This is direct from motorola. I can state with 100% certainty that
- NO 060 slower than 50Mhz is currently planned.
