[Vampire] The AMIGA Future Is NOW! AROS!

I wouldn't have thought it matters how a graphics card is connected as long as the driver conforms to an RTG standard supported by the operating system.

according to what ive been told again, 020 represents the widest possible instruction set of the whole 68k family. all the others cpus except few small exceptions use the subset of instructions available on 020 (and 6888x, counting fpu in). apollo identifies itself as 040 but provides all the extensions there have been to 020 instruction set.

so, if this is true, apollo core is functionally the most compatible alround 68k implementation there is.

I think old software mis-identifies the Apollo as an 040, I've also seen old software mis-identify it as an 060 recently where-as some new software can correctly identify it as an Apollo "68080". So it would be wrong to say the Apollo identifies itself as an 040.
