If the version of LSC due out in Feb/Mar will support the 881, I'd guess it
will also support the 020 too, right?

Also, will it generate code depending on a setting at link time...as in...
"must have 020/881" or will it generate conditional code that will run
with different instructions at run time?

(That is, will one compiled/linked prgm work under both 000 and 020/881 systems
while working more optimally on more powerful systems - this would require
more code.... or will it be an option at link time...smaller and faster, but
would require two linked versions?)

Either way, an excuse to pick up a II!
