Message-ID: Date: 3 Apr 91 21:16:24 GMT Sender: news@shearson.com (News) Reply-To: salc@alfred.shearson.com Distribution: comp Organization: Lehman Brothers Lines: 21 Okay folks, has anybody out there heard anything about a 40 MHZ '040 upgrade? Recent benchmarks in NeXTWorld suggest that a 40 MHZ 68040 would beat a 40 MHZ SPARC chip (the one used in the SPARCstation II).... Perhaps those of us who have purchased the 25 MHZ '040 upgrade should consider buying high speed memory to be prepared for the next *real* upgrade!! :) So how about it folks? Any unconfirmed reports that anybody wishes to share? --Sal -- Sal Cataudella Internet: salc@alfred.shearson.com UUCP: ...!uunet!slcpi!alfred!salc (212) 464-3871
