Could you tell us why the 332 is so fast, what the benchmarks test, schedule
for general availability of the 15 MHz version, etc.

Motorola announced 20 MHz fully debugged 68020s a while ago.  Are they
selling 24 MHz versions yet?  How does the {best generally available or
best internal sample} 68020 compare with the 32332?


Cheering for another commercially viable 32 bit family, trying to stir
up the 68K vs 32K debate yet again, and fickle as hell (I used to *love*
the NS family, but the bugs and the 68020 changed my mind),
