(Followups to comp.sys.amiga.)

The new A2500 includes a 68020 with '881 and '851 MMU, and 32-bit RAM.  It's
just an A2000 with the '020 board plugged into the CPU expansion slot.
The A2500 machine is supposedly available now (I don't remember the price)
but no availability date or price has been announded for Unix.

It's System V Release 3, and uses the same SGS (C compiler, assembler, etc.)
as the Unix PC.  In fact it even has the Unix PC's SIGWIND and SIGPHONE in
<sys/signal.h>, but they are commented out.  It's weird how much Unix PC
stuff got into 68K SysVr3.
