I hate to add another rumor to the 3000 pile, but while looking at a picture
of the 3000 and the available schematics, he found an open socket which
would JUST fit a 68040.

My curiousity is if anyone at Commodore wants to say whether or not the 3000
will be easily upgraded to a 68040 when they hit the mass market.

As a side note, Joe Torre of Amiga Atlanta also found composite monochrome
video on the 3000 motherboard, and would like to claim fame and fortune as
the discoverer of what may be the first 3000 hardware hack. Amusing, no?
