The difference between a 65xxx chip and a 68xxx is a factor of 2
        in favor of the 65xxx
The difference between a 65xxx chip and a 80xxx is a factor of 6
        in favor of the 65xxx

These come from a magazine (I think it was an Apple-specific, but I'm not
sure)

The bench-marks show that a //GS running at 2.5MHz is just under a Mac, running
at 8 MHZ,in most benchmarks, and tremendously above in one (Eristophenes'
Seive (sp?), the 65xxx series chips are great on repitition)
