carlosefr, 2 months ago The Intel 8088 had ~29,000 transistors. The Motorola 68000 had quite a few more, can you guess how many? Yes... it had ~68,000 transistors! https://spectrum.ieee.org/chip-hall-of-fame-motorola-mc68000-microprocessor TIL 🤯 If you think the older Motorola 6800 had ~6,800 transistors, it did not. It had ~4,100. #retrocomputing #history #cpu
