IIRC it was the only micro available that was radiation hard. (is that the correct expression?). Meindert

I've got an old Windows PC that might as well use an 8085, based on the speed it runs programs! But honestly, a lot of us old timers still play with these devices. They're a LOT easier to use than PICs. And the Rabbit Internet devices use a Z-80 superset...

This makes it binary incompatible with any software ever built for 8080, 8085, z80, 64180, z180, etc. A very foolish decision, IMO. -- "If you want to post a followup via groups.google.com, don't use the broken "Reply" link at the bottom of the article.
