It already is. You would need a quadra clock generator, but then I guess
mmeory access etc. will not work anymore (if it runs at the same speed
as the CPU).

Then those 040->060 adapters cost very much indeed and the 060 isn't
exactly cheap either.

Does anyone know how it's done on the Amiga cards there you can change
the 040 to a 060? Do you only need to change a jumper or do they use
an adapter as well?
