I just read an article in the latest issue of Macintosh Today (April 5, 1988)
about the 68030 product plans from a company called "MacProducts USA."

The article states that the company will produce 68030 upgrade boards for the 
Mac II with CPU speeds of "about" 20, 25 and 30 MHz.  The lower speed boards
are expected to be available first, beginning in May.  A Mac SE version of the
upgrade boards ought to be available in the Fall or Winter.

Tentative pricing for the boards ranges from $3995 to $ 4995.

The phone number for MacProducts is listed as (512) 832-0335.

Jim
