TBH a 68060 is just icing on the cake these days. Most Amiga owners I knew back in the day had '030's or slower A1200's. And on that hardware-and anything else without a graphics card-the bottleneck is the native chipset graphics speed.

If you want to run Amiga productivity software quickly, then that software usually needs an RTG card to do it justice eg rendering, image processing, DTP. Believe me, I know, I spent a small fortune upgrading my A1200 with an Apollo 68060, only to realise that AGA was still as slow as ever in 256 colors dblscan, which is what ImageFX, Photogenics, Cinema 4D and Pagestream need as a minimum to be used comfortably

In short, the sensible thing would be to get an 030 ( 50 mhz if you can). And if you need to run any of the above-mentioned apps, then do it in Winuae: its cheaper, faster, morecompatible and easier to set up than a big box amiga with an 68060 and a RTG card.

Ofcourse a true Amigan will ignore this sensible advice and buy an A4000, get that 68060, plus the picasso 4/cv64 with scan doubler/indivision. I did.
