The TEK 4051 is a Graphics Terminal with BASIC in ROM,

and illustrated it with several old advertisements including the first
M6800 ad and a Tektronix 4051 ad.

Thanks for that history of the development of the 6800, Michael.
While I had some prior hardware exposure to the 8080 and Z80 in an
IMSAI, the 6800 was the first microproc I really became acquainted with
and programmed at the instruction/assembly level.
