Well, it is strange how many people cant differentiate a 8088 from a 68000.
This limit is imposed by the PCs Intel processor, and since the ST doesnt have
a 8088 ( at least i have never heard of one ), the 64+64 limit simply does not
apply. If you were referring to PC-Minix please forgive me, but this is 
comp.sys.atari.st, right ? This has been said before, and no doubt will have
to be told thousand of times more.......
No flame intended.
