What is not
well known is that the CoCo was actually designed by

Wasn't it actually a suggested schematic for the 6883 synchronous
address multiplexer chip?
Huh... talk about synchronicity... Minutes ago I collected a packet
from my mailbox with some vintage chips... CDP1802CD, CDP1852, Hitachi
68450, MC6860, and an MC6883.
... and then I see a list thread talking about the MC6883.
Wild.
