	Motorola 88000 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The 88000 (m88k for short) is a microprocessor design produced by Motorola.
		This was some two years after its competition in the form of the SPARC and MIPS, and the 88000 never managed to catch on.
		Motorola released a series of motherboards for making "out of the box" systems based on the 88000, known as the MVME series, as well as the interesting Series 900 stackable computers.

	Motorola 88000
		The 88000 was Motorola's attempt at a home-grown RISC (now often referred to as a load-store) design, started in the 1980s.
		Originally called the 78000 as a homage to their famed 68000 series, the design went though a tortured development path, including the name change, before finally emerging in 1988.
		It was a pure 32-bit system, using a true Harvard architecture with completely separate data and address busses (and caches), had a small but powerful command set, and –like all Motorola CPUs– did not use memory segmentation.

		The Motorola MC68012 processor is a 16/32-bit microprocessor from the early 1980s.
		It is a 84-pin PGA version of the Motorola MC68010.
		The memory space was extended to 2GB and an RMC pin was added.

		Motorola was slowly losing their lead in CISC processors -- for the first 10 years the 68000's were far superior to the Intel processors (during the 1980's), but the lead was narrowing.
		So Motorola was making the jump to RISC with the 88000, and it was performing well, but the market is never enthused about a loss of backward compatibility.
		Motorola had the 88000 processor completed and had the I/O support chips for the 88000 done as well (necessary to really sell a processor).

	Motorola 6809 - Computing Reference - eLook.org
		The 6809 was a major advance over both its predecessor, the Motorola 6800 and also over the 6502.
		The 6809 had two 8-bit accumulators, rather than one in the 6502, and could combine them into a single 16-bit register.
		The 6809 was used in the UK "Dragon 32" personal computer and was followed by the Motorola 68000.

	AIM alliance
		AIM was an alliance formed between Apple Computer, IBM and Motorola to create a new computing standard based on the PowerPC architechture.
		PReP was in fact a barely-modified version of IBM's existing RS/6000 platform, changed only to support the new bus style of the PowerPC (based on the Motorola 88000).
		Efforts on the part of Motorola and IBM to popularize PReP/CHRP failed when Apple consistently (and deliberately) did not provide a version of the Mac OS that could run on it.

	Electronic News: Motorola PowerPC deal with Ford raises questions on 88K RISC fate - Motorola's 88000 reduced ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Rather than turning to work done for the 88K, Motorola plans to re-use peripheral cells originally developed for the 68300 CPU, and is also starting development work of flash memory cells for use on PowerPC circuits.
		Motorola expects a ratio of at least one PowerPC for every Ford vehicle built, although volume purchases are not scheduled to begin until the end of the decade.
		Wilkie and other Motorola executives stopped short of saying PowerPC would replace the 88K in all future design considerations, and Tom Mace, president and CEO of 88open, said future 88K iterations are "in discussion and design activities." Nevertheless, he confirmed a restructuring at the consortium while indicating its budget has been cut.

	IBM on Apple/Intel and the G5 - Page 2 - Mac Forums (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		I recall that NEXT was in line to use Motorola's 88000 RISC processor (as was Ford for an imbedded version), but that processor died when the three (IBM, Apple, Motorola) created the PPC, which was, at the time, a single chip version of the POWER Processor.
		Motorola at that time was top notch in microcontrollers and microprocessors, and did an amazing job of putting the POWER instruction set on the single chip.
		Whatever happened to Motorola since the intro of the G4, everybody should at least note that there was quite a long period of time in the 80's and 90's when Motorola was king of the hill in performance.

		Data General later switched architectures and became an early supporter of the Motorola 88K series load-store microprocessor in the AViiON Unix based systems (designers originally wanted to call it the Nova II, but that idea was rejected, so instead they reversed the name and inserted the II in the middle, switching upper and lower case).
		Later, Motorola designed a successor called Coldfire (early 1995), in which complex instructions and addressing modes (added to the 68020) were removed and the instruction set was recoded, simplifying it at the expense of compatibility (source only, not binary) with the 680x0 line.
		The C100 was a three-chip set like the Motorola 88000 (but predating it by two years), with a Harvard architecture CPU and separate MMU/cache chips for instruction and data.

	RoughlyDrafted
		In order to keep parity with Motorola, who had started with a better design, and yet still maintain compatibility with the 8088, Intel had to design increasingly complex processors.
		PC sales funded increasing x86 research and development on a scale that began to overshadow the rest of the world, causing Apple to worry that Motorola would not be able to keep up in the technology race alone.
		Somewhat ironically, Apple decided to partner with IBM in designing a new family of processors, using some of the 88000 technology Motorola and Apple had started work on, and adding in a scaled-down version of IBM's 64-bit POWER architecture.

	Apple and IBM Power ahead together - Forums powered by UBB.threadsï¿½
		Motorola was looking at Apple using the 88000 to replace the aging 68000 series (which by that time had so many problems that the 68050 never shipped, and they skipped from the 68040 directly to the 68060 which never really shipped in volume.
		Motorola's intent was to add a graphics processing unit and eventually a true vector processing unit (or a couple of each) into the 88000.
		Maybe it was because the 88000 was such a poor performer (many of its execution units simply stunk!).

		Earlier AViiON models used the Motorola 88000 CPU, but later models moved to an all-Intel solution when Motorola stopped work on the 88000 in the early 1990s.
		In 1992 Motorola joined the AIM alliance to develop "cut down" versions of the IBM POWER CPU design into a single-chip CPU for desktop machines.
		DG at this point gave up working with Motorola, and decided instead to go "all commodity", and use i386 based CPUs from Intel instead.

		Motorola's last hope for the 88000 was major support from Apple.
		Giving Motorola the manufacturing rights for the RS/6000 single-chip implementation is a concession from Apple and a way to maintain its good relationship with Motorola.
