Legality is a big issue. I came across this while I was reading about a
ZX81-on-a-chip clone (T80 core). I thought that it would be a good
alternative when Motorola gives up the 68K family. As for the new
Coldfires... have you seen : a. Their prices?, b. That Motorola won't
make them really available in anything less than batches of 1000?
a. From the prices which were suggested to me, the Coldfire version 4e
controllers will have one of the best price/performance ratios for chips
with FPU on the market. I'll tell you more, once they are released, which
should happen in a few months.
b. Yes.
All the best

Hi Peter,
That's excellent news... I was under the impression... or at least talk and
Motorola's own press releases gave me that impression, that the situation
was very bleak. Will see also how Motorola will go ahead with the
publicised full compatibility with the 68K (and the ultra high speeds they
have in their roadmap (Trendy word this one these days ;-)
