I don't understand why so many people with edu addresses are
talking about buying PMMUs when Motorola will send them to
you for free. This information has been posted in this news
group already, but if anyone wishes it reposted, let me know.
If you are a student or faculty member, Motorola will send
you a PMMU and a 68882 coprocessor if you ask for it absolutely
free, no charge! It's difficult to find a cheaper upgrade path
than that.
