Nope.  The original was a 68010.  It's a virtual memory machine (with
a custom MMU), and you can't run VM with a 68000, period - that's why
the 68010 exists.

The difference between the Unix PC and the 3b1 was the nameplate, only.
It's just like the "Porsche 914", which in Europe was sold as a
Volkswagen.  The 3b1 label was reserved for the top of the line, but
they are the same machine.

>Don't know about the memory protection on either model, though.

Custom MMU on all of them.  Works like a charm.  Followups to comp.sys.3b1.
