There is a (or will be) a 68012. It is not a 32bit wide data cpu. It is the same as the 68000 with the difference that all the address lines are available. The 68000 throws away 8 of the address lines normally. His reference article can it explain it better than I. Look it up... Tim /* ---------- */ Minor correction - the 68012 is the 68010, not the 68000. This buys you virtual machine/memory capabilities, as well as memory-speed block moves/compares/etc.
