Eeep! I should have stopped to look that figure up. It's 3.5 Megaflops (compared to 0.6 for the 25 MHz 68030/68882 combo). Still that's nearly six times the megaflops of a IIci. It's also faster than Motorola's original spec sheet for the 68040. /s Murph [Internet] or ...{psuvax1 or mcvax}!uconnvm.bitnet!sewall [UUCP] + Standard disclaimer applies ("The opinions expressed are my own" etc.)
