Developers Try Again To Upstream Motorola 68000 Series Support In LLVM

interesting if they are planning to add mmu support, seems there was linux port for m68k

x86 architecture was not better than m68k.

Seriously. The 68K had an orthogonal instruction set, linear memory and I/O mapping, the list goes on and on. We'd have a far better world even today had Moto been able to make the 68K in decent quantity and price when Boca Raton came calling.

(ETA: ... and how could I forget "*DACK"! Made IO implementations so much easier to wire up)

I love this thread. Pleasant to read.
