Yes, the 68851 is in fact the MMU. It might always be slaved to the
CPU (or MPU, as Motorola calls them) and not have an individual clock.
Unlike the FPU, which may be clocked asycnhronously.

X11 (btw, it is _not_ called "X-Windows", but rather "X", "X11", "X
Window System", "X Window System, Version 11" or "X Version 11") is
not usable at all with only 4MB of memory. 8 is an absolute minimum,
16 is about usable, and 32 is fine. (But afaik the 320 and 330 can
only take 7.5 or 8 MB, respectively.)
