in response to your note about the clock speed of the Apple //GS: You have fallen into a very common trap..equating clock speed with instruction execution speed. Like the 65c02, the 65816 executes its shortest instructions in 1 clock cycle. The 68000 takes a minimum of 4 and usually about 8 clock cycles per instruction. thus the Apple//GS, when effectively programmed, may be able to keep up with a 12-mhz 68000.
