Actually, i don't know much about FastRAM compatibility.

To be honest, the Falcon was never meant for expandability.
The Falcon was initially a low-cost 68000 design and we've
all been lucky that it has been given an 68030 in the end.

Still, it has many bottle-necks and internal limits that are
hard to overcome and require either a lot of money or
patience, but in most cases both and the choice is limited.

Whether it's worth the effort - that's something everybody
needs to decide for himself. There's little to no software
that requires a 100MHz 060, a graphics resolution of 1280
x 960 in 32 bit colour or 1GB FastRAM and chances are low
that there will ever be the need for it.
