On the lab sheets we are told:
"The UofT68000 board's address space from $200000 to
$B00000 is not used. ... To reduce the amount of
wiring, you're allowed to use aliasing. That is,
instead of locating your register at a specific
location, you can allow any address in the range
$200000 to $B00000 to access your register."

My question is simply whether or not $B00000 is
included in the allowable addresses. I would think
that it isn't because it can't be differentiated from
$BXXXXX without looking at the lower order bits.
So the allowable addresses are actually $200000 to
$AFFFFF inclusive, right?
