A friend of mine just purchased an A3000-16/50 under the PowerUP
program.  He was wondering what (if it is even possible) he needs to
do, if at some point in the future he wants to upgrade it to 25Mhz
operation.

Obviously, he would need to replace the 68030, 68882, and clock
crystal with 25Mhz parts (he is guessing that these parts will become
much cheaper in the next couple of years, making such an upgrade
financially feasable).  Is there anything else which needs to be done
(jumpers moved, other parts upgraded?).  Are all of these things
socketed?

(who wishes *HE* had $1800 to upgrade his A1000 to a A3000-16/50)
