  A 68882 is a 68882.  There's no such thing as a "Mac 68882".  Go for
it.

  I used a 3/60 as my primary workstation many years ago.  I did a lot
of raytracing and stuff like that on it.  I replaced the 68881 with a
68882 and was very pleased with the increase in performance.  It's
well worth the time if you're doing any floating point work.
