- Well, technically speaking it isn't in any Macs anymore, all of the 68000
- Mac have been discontinued. By Feb 92 every Mac will have at least a 68030
- in it (there are still a few 68020 machines produced, and will be replaced
- in Feb.)

- The 68000 is a 16/32 bit chip. 16bit data bus (the one that really matters),
- and a 32bit address bus (the amount of memory it can address).
