Well, I just received the July issue of the German Amiga Magazin.
On p. 6, they have a marketing blurb of ACD (Advanced Computer Design,
Bremen, Germany) who sell the "Fusion-40" card made by US company RCS.
It's a 68040 card with 4 MB RAM, priced at 6000 DM (ca. $3300).
It's rated with 18 MIPS, so someone perhaps can tell what the real
clock frequency is. Because in the text, they say (translated):

   The 68040 processor works internally with 50 MHz, though the
   external clock is only 25 MHz.

Now, can someone confirm me that this is exactly the wrong way round?
