I remembered the mention of the 68010 as being in the machine area of the documentation, but I was wrong. It was under GEMDOS, which is not specific to the ST. There is no mention of the 68010 in the hardware section (Atari specific) in the documentation and any speculations I made concerning that are foolishness. Rand Huntzinger
