@CU_AMiGA,

Off topic, are you in any way related to the magazine? One of my favourites, it was a dark day indeed when it dissapeared.

When all is lost and you run out of ammo, you could always throw it at your enemy.

Or drop it from an aircraft (if airbourne).

It looks solid and heavy enough to make a potent kinetic weapon :-)

Didnt phillips (badly) clone the 68000 core, add some UARTs and stuff and then call it a 68070?

I bet that number excited a few people when they first heard it :lol:
