I have changed 68010 to my 2 meg A500 and have noticed that there are only few
programs that won't work with it. On the other hand, I don't see any reason why
to "boost" Amiga with 68010  because the improve in speed is only about 5-10%
and that's something you won't even notice. Only if you optimize the code for
010, you will get more speed increase (up to 40% in some cases).
	Decigel and Super Decigel are programs that make 010 look like 68010.
There are very few programs that won't work with Decigels, for example
Transformer. But those programs may be "corrected" with Fix68010 (after fixing
you won't propably be able to run those programs with 68000).
