Well, I just received the July issue of the German Amiga Magazin. On p. 6, they have a marketing blurb of ACD (Advanced Computer Design, Bremen, Germany) who sell the "Fusion-40" card made by US company RCS. It's a 68040 card with 4 MB RAM, priced at 6000 DM (ca. $3300). It's rated with 18 MIPS, so someone perhaps can tell what the real clock frequency is. Because in the text, they say (translated): The 68040 processor works internally with 50 MHz, though the external clock is only 25 MHz. Now, can someone confirm me that this is exactly the wrong way round? -- Best regards, Dr. Peter Kittel // E-Mail to \\ Only my personal opinions...
