Keep in mind that the Vampire has a custom Kickstart image in flash memory and the ROM is not used ever.  Currently it's 3.1 compatible but a 1.3 compatible fallback mode might soon be available .

And really - 68020 is the most complex 68k?


Starting with the 040 opcodes and addressing modes were dropped to simplify the instruction set.  The 060 could not do a 32b by 32b multiply, for example.
