I've never gotten much into the Z80 world. I don't think many foundries run NMOS
processes anymore, in any case (I could be totally and completely wrong).
Well...there are modern implementations of the Z80, with wider
address buses, MMUs, lots of speed (relative to the older ones),
features, etc. Essentially the same thing that happened to the x86.
But then there's the plain old Z80, which, the last time I checked,
was still being produced.
