A project log for 68040 upgrade for Powerbook 520c

Unsoldering and resoldering a 180-pin QFP! Thrills! Excitement! A full 68040 in a Powerbook 520c!

I don't know what's going on here. MacBench says no FPU. Whatever. I give up.

It was however good practice for soldering QFP parts. Also, the Wolfvision viewer is very helpful. I only resorted to the loupe for final inspection of solder joints.
