The amiga uses the 68000 chip exactly because it is less expensive and the
amiga does not require the 68010 extra capabilities of instruction restart.
The 68000 and 68010 are directly compatible and if you want to speed
everything up about 7-8%, you can just drop in a 68010 (assuming the 68000
is in a socket of course).
