- As far as I know, not an incredible amount. An '020 is about 75% of the speed
- of an '030. The '030's major advantage is that it has an MMU, which is
- important for running Unix and mapping the KS into ram. An '020 should have no
- problem running 32 bit programs if it has an external MMU(Which CBM should have
- as a plug-in option for any '020 system for compatibility with higher end
- systems).
