My A3000 will last a long time now. Anyone know if it will work with Emplant?

RE #1 I believe Emplant will run on any Amiga with an expansion slot..

The Emplant is amazing in my 3000, but wouldn't work at all in my SO's 2000
with a CSA '030 board. An "060 @ 80hz should push non RISC programs up to
PowerMAC levels, Way Cool.
