Hi,

I worked in a Mac store around here before, during, and a little after the
transfer from the 68k's to the PPC's. The last 68k chip that a Mac had in it was
the 68040. So, unless they had some prototypes floating around that I wasn't
aware of... :)  Anyway, I'm not too sure as to how fast some of the last 68k
Macs ran. 66MHz keeps on popping in to my head... I know for sure, that the
75MHz Macs were PPC 601's I think.

-M.
