None, because its hard to get the needed parts around. The 68k is discontinued at Freescale.

Are you sure about that? I was under the impression that Freescale was still producing 3.3V 68000 - 68060 chips. The best thing to do is to go to their website and check the official status. IIRC, the old 5V DIL chips are discontinued; surface mount versions are still available.

You know, I can almost picture some people here doing that.  :laughing:

Hi
If built in China RoHS won't be a problem per se. They don't adhere to it yet.

It will still be an issue due to import restrictions. It makes no sense to force your own industry to be RoHS compliant if people can just import cheaper non-RoHS stuff from elsewhere.
