The speed increase will probably only average about 5% or so. Some programs will not work, so for only 5% increase I wouldn't make the modification. That way when something doesn't work there's one less thing to worry about. >Jameco catalog and they list several 68000 series chips. > >MC68000L8, MC68000L10, MC68000P12 >What are the differences between L and P, and 8, 10, 12? L means ceramic package, P means plastic. 8, 10, & 12 mean 8 MHz, 10 MHz, & 12.5MHz respectively. >Which chip is the one used in the 2000? The Amiga 68000 runs at just over 7 MHz, so the 8 MHz version will probably be the cheapest one you'll find. Also, you may use either the L or P version. >Thanks in advance!
