You could say the same thing about the new machines, but they just brought out an 800MHz G4 upgrade for PCI power macs. Take a 33MHz 68k mac, and stick in a 220MHz, how much different is that than putting an 800MHz chip into a machine that made to do a 200MHz 604, or even a 120MHz 601! It would probably work very well if they manage to put some kind of backside cache on that Motorola chip...........The operative would being, IF.
