According to Rand Miller's artical in the September issue of Macazine, the
"Mac II is designed so this new chip [the 68030] will pop right in to
replace the 68020."

Now grant you, I'm not a hardware type (in fact, semantics of programming
languages is my game) but it seems to me that with the double bus structure
of the 68030 the pinouts would not match.  Would any enlightend hardware
person like to comment on this?  Are the pinouts the same (implying that
the "Harvard style parallel architecture" is not seen off chip)?
