And here we have the 68060 model of the Fidelity Elite Avant Garde on Ebay:

Of course, this is generally known as not a production model but an aftermarket
upgrade. Still, it is quite strong and of major interest. I would bid except I
already have an Elite A/S and when/if I ever get a 68060 I want it to be in a
real Avant Garde board, which this is not (i.e., with the dual display). While
some purists have negative opinions about this upgrade, I like it for being the
Fidelity that never was and for helping raise the strength level of the
dedicated computers. After all, how many Elite V10 models were ever sold (let
alone made). The upgrade would also seem to fit the Avant Garde name as well.
Happy bidding!

Hail to the Elite Regards,

Chuck
