Invalid.  The mega-st is just a quickquick re-work of the st, which is a
fairly old re-design.  They probably did it to make up for the fact that the
biggest st you could get was a meg.  The *next* st to come out will probably
have an 020.  The next amiga probably will also.

Well, how many machines at *all* have the 010?  From what I remember, by
the time we (a little almost dead computer company in new hampster) could get
them, the 020 was just around the corner -- we made a few test boards with the
010 to check the design and then turned around and cranked out a 020 board.
