I have a question..... what are the differences between the 16 Mhz A3000
and the 25 Mhz A3000?



also, more importantly, A friend of mine told me that a 16 Mhz A3000
equipped with one of these upcoming 68040 accelerators would run just
as fast as a 25 Mhz A3000 equipped with the same accelerator, despite the
difference in clock speeds. Is this true? Will the 040 board replace all
of the previous processors functions, including clock speed? I ask this
because the 16 Mhz model is cheaper, and I am planning on getting an 040
board anyway.

I'm sorry if this question has been asked before, but I'm new to the net.


Thanks.                          Michael Gibson
