- You can buy it either way: with a 68030/68EC030
- Remember that you can do all the nice MMU tricks if you have an EC030
- (like run enforcer, UNIX, etc) :)

- In my opinion they are both quite difrent beats, one is an accelerator
- only, with a connector for expansion memory board. The other one is a full
- accelerator/memory expander/scsi controller with drive/expansion slot, see
