pardon me for bringing up the ghosts of comp.arch past...

but...  i'm trying to evaluate which processor is most suitable
for a high speed realtime system.  no floating point!

the two main contenders are AM29000 and 68020...  so we are looking
at the pros and cons of risc & cisc, obviously.  we have no great 
allegiance to either architecture.  we just need some serious speed.

we are interested in something with a development environment that is
mature enough so that we won't be a defacto beta site...  

if anyone out there has any archives of previous discussions on these
processors and development environments, could you forward them to me? 

 thanks for your help, folks!
