The Freescale (was Motorola) M68K family of processors implements
the full 68000 processor instruction set.

+ The Freescale ColdFire family of processors is a modern derivative
of the 68000 processor family. They are mainly targeted at embedded
applications, and are all System-On-Chip (SOC) devices, as opposed
to stand alone CPUs. They implement a subset of the original 68000
