Well, I don't know where you heard that, but Pentiums can't emulate
anywhere near 68060 speeds. Let's see My K6 2 500 emulates roughly a slow
030, my G3 366 iBook emulates a quickish 68020, my PIII 667 emulates about
a quick 030 and a friends 850 Athlon is roughly an 040.. I guess with real
opitimization you could get any emulator to go quicker, but you'd need a
seriously quick computer to emulate faster than a 68060.

I may be wrong however. I'll just stick with my A4k/060/ppc ;).
