curprev 18:5218:52, 20 January 2024‎ Jerri Kohl talk contribs‎ 68,630 bytes −828‎ →‎Applications: the claim that the 68000 was rejected by IBM for the PC b/c it was not ready only has one source which makes irrelevant claims (e.g. In the first half of 1978, Intel already had production-released samples of the 8088. By the end of 1978, Motorola’s 68K was still not quite ready for production release.) and has no IBM/Motorola/Intel sources for why the 8086 was chosen over the 68000. There are alt claims made by others as to why. undo

curprev 23:1623:16, 26 May 2023‎ Guy Harris talk contribs‎ 69,546 bytes +186‎ The 24-bit addressing of the 68000 (and 68010) are due to a 24-bit address bus. The 68020's 32-bit address bus allows full 32-bit addressing. Give more details on that (including mentioning the Motorola 68012 with a 31-bit address bus and 31-bit addressing), and note that the 32-bit ALU and data bus of the 68020 sped up 32-bit operations. undo
