There's been some discussion in sys.att recently about getting
68881 co-processor's installed into the 7300/3b1. To forestall
misinformation, there is such a gadget listed in the parts list
for the 7300, and AT&T developed the product, but in a flash of
brilliance never marketed it.
Weell.. I vaguely recall that 68000's are pin compatible with 68010's,
(is that right? if not, then stop me now).. Also, there are companies
selling daughter boards for Amiga's which allow you to plug in
a 68010+68881 in replacement for the 68000 that comes in the machine.
SO
Would such a board also work in a 3b1?
In general, are there boards available which'd do something like
this for a 3b1? (I'd really like to get a 68881 into my 3b1).
