First the disclaimers:  I know this sort of question is meaningless
as it stands and depends on all sorts of factors like the
application, the program, prejudice, etc.; & I'm sure this has been
covered before -- but I haven't seen it.

So, as regards the 80386/68030 -- Which is better? Which is faster?
Why?

I'm really thinking about the NeXT vs. an 80386 based Unix machine.
