If what you really want is the specs for the 68000 then please contact: Motorola Ltd. European Literature Center 88 Tanners Drive Blakelands Milton Keynes, MK145BP, England or The sales office in (ugh, I missed where you are from. If Sweden is not correct, write back to me and I will give you the right number) Sweden at (08)83 02 00- that is in Solna And ask for the MC68000UM and timing specifications (they are separate now, at least in the English version- although I don't know if we write our manuals in any other language). -- Skipper Smith | skipper@motaus.sps.mot.com Motorola Technical Training | 8945 Guilford Rd Ste 145 All opinions are my own, not my employers | Columbia, MD 21046
