 I would love to know how you could physically fit a 68030 in a 68000 package.
 For starters, the 68030 has 32 physical address lines, and using simple
 grade 2 arithmetic, that leaves 32 pins. I would love someone to tell me
 how you could add all of the complex external pin outs and ins of the 68030
 into a 64 pin DIP. Even the standard 68030 has around 114 pins (I think).


  If I have in someway misconstrued what you have asked, please forgive me.
  Else, someone has been ear-bashing you.
