- In the January 90 issue of Byte there was an article on math
- coprocessors. It stated that 68020/030 was capable of having
- 7 math coprocessors (68881/2) at the same time.
-
- As far as I know this statement is false. I think that
- 68020/030/040 are capable of having 8 different types of
- coprocessors; one type being math coprocessor, another
- MMU, etc. Am I right?
-
- Thanks in advance.
