According to Karl Pielorz: > b) Prefers the Motorola?

Very nice machine, lots of memory for its time (I ended up with 640 KB), a graphical interface and multitasking OS. All in 64 KB of ROM along with a very modern BASIC... I cut my teeth on 68K assembler on this and was very happy. Boy, what a deception it was the first time I read about 8086 assembler :-( National Semiconductors NS32x32 processors were even nicer than 68K for assembly programming. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 3.0-CURRENT #60: Fri May 15 21:04:22 CEST 1998 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
