Common "cheap" upgrade in Amiga land was to upgrade the 68000 to a
68010. Only mattered if applications used the (couple) '10 extensions.

As I remember, 020 (and above) wasn't pin compatible, so it needed a
"real" upgrade. With surface mount, this could be a real challenge...

If you ever want to (un)subscribe yourself with TTL, you can send mail to:
<Majordomo@flippers.com>
with the following command in the body of your email message:
(un)subscribe techtoolslist
or from another email account, besides xxx@yyy.com:
(un)subscribe techtoolslist xxx@yyy.com
