I just received my Aztec C68k development system.  It looks GREAT!!!
Later on I will give a full review after I have had a chance to
roll around in it.

Results of the "sieve" benchmark (10 iterations) are as follows:

            128k Mac   |    Vax 11/780
            Aztec C68k |    System 5.0
-----------------------------------------
Execute:      3.8 sec  |      1.43 sec (user)
in RAM                 |
-----------------------------------------
Size:       4952 bytes |     5734 bytes
executable             |
-----------------------------------------
Compile/               |
assemble/    69 sec    |      1.7 sec (user)

Not bad for a little Mac.
