Is there anyone in netland who knows, if it is possible to connect a 68881 to an A1000 with a 68000 processor. It would be nice if it was compatible with the 1.3 math. library. I have a lot of pictures to raytrace, but I really don't have the cash to buy a 68020/68881 board (SIGH). Thanks in advance.

Microbotics makes a "Multifunction Module" for StarboardII that, among other things, has a socket for a 68881. I don't know about compatibility with 1.3 math libs; I believe you get math libs with the mfm. It would certainly be _possible_ to hack one in, also, but I assume that's not what you had in mind... > >Thanks in advance. > > >John Bach Jensen >Student at Instutute of Datalogy, University of Copenhagen >E-mail to dizzy@freja.diku.dk >----------
