Since the 68000 doesn't have an MMU, it seems unlikely in the extreme that
UNIX will be available for an unmodified 500.  However, an A500 w/a 68030
processor card should have no problem.  You'd almost certainly want one
anyway, just for the enhanced performance.

Remember that a stock 500 is clocked at 7Mhz...
