- Someone on a local BBS suggested to me recently that a 68010 processor supports
- virtual memory. My immediate response was no, because you need a PMMU for that
- purpose. On the other hand, I realize that I know very little about the '010.
- Am I right? What is the difference between the 68000 and the 68010? I was
- under the impression that the '010 had slightly more efficient instruction code
- in some areas, and that's all. Benchmarks wouldn't increase with an '010
- significantly, would they? I think this was covered in this newsgroup a while
- back; I apologize if everybody's already heard this. Thanks in advance.
