A comment on A story about restoring and upgrading a Commodore Amiga 1000. Parent comment
I buy that argument.
My personal reference is the 68K is a 16 bit chip, like the 6809 is an 8 bit chip.
Moto just made really great CPUs at that time.
And the fact is Moto did well by making sure the future was clear for 32 bits. Mostly just a hardware change.
(Except for people who stuffed info into those upper address bits. Oops!)
