Hello,
I've been reading several of these lengthy 68040-to-68060-adapters threads the last few months, and I would find it great if someone could create a specific thread for feedbacks and benchmarking of these adapters.
Being aware of the relative complexity of assembling and using these kits, it would be very interesting if people involved in these modifications would participate to this thread to share their experience building them.
Indeed, many variables are to be taken into account :
- there are several variations/revisions of these kits
- Different cards can be targeted: A3640, WarpEngine....
- depending on one's willingness to go down the rabbit hole, one can choose the path of "full 060/3.9-eprom-burning" or the simpler "MMU/FPU emasculed 060" with possible system crashs.
And I personnaly found difficult to browse the various "040-to-060" related threads to try and find (few) relevant info about how people attempts turned out.
Besides, these threads are obviously trade related, so I feel a feedback thread would be complementary and, to my opinion, useful for those who are considering this dramatic alteration of their hardware (me included), but still hesitate.
Waiting for your opinion on this topic ;-)
Thomas.
