    >An 020 with intregrated MMU is called 68030 btw.....

    ;-)

    That IS pretty much all the '030 is, other than the fact that its available at higher speeds.
    Actually, the '020 holds a special place in my heart (and for my former uses an EC is fine and an MMU is unnecessary).
    I loved how much more powerful, clock for clock this was than the 68000.
    We didn't get another comparable jump until the '040 was introduced (but the '30 did scale pretty high).

    I think I mentioned before that the last system we offered was '020 based (there was an '030 in the works, but the company founder passed away unexpectedly).

    BTW - No speculation here on whether or not Hombre based systems would have been branded Amigas?
    I'm not 100% convinced they would have been. Particularly not if they wound up running Windows NT.
