I am considering putting a 68010 into my 7 MHz A500 (as a cheap way of getting
a little speed increase).  I have several questions about this:

1.  Does anything need to be done besides pulling the 68000 and dropping
    in the 010? (in the way of jumpers, etc.)
2.  How much of a speed increase can I expect?
3.  Are there any side affects? (i.e. does any of my software have to change?
    I am running 1.2)
4.  Is it worth it?

I am posting this for my brother, so I would appreciate it if you could
respond to rbw@spock.byu.edu.  Thanks in advance.
