I have had experience programming early Intel processors, but am not real
familiar with the 80x86 or 680x0.  Everything I have heard says "Motorola is
better" but no one ever says why.  Could someone who knows why (or why not)
please email me an explanation?  I will summarize for the net.  I should be
reachable via "danm@tektronix".  Thanks,
