I suspect you'll know this, but which 1980s (8 bit) microcomptuer had
4-bit wide RAM at the hardware level? (The hardware did 2 memory cycles

Acorn Electron?
Correct. Or, for the pedants, that was the one I was thinking of (the RAM
on that machine was as 64K*4 DRAM chip or module, it appeared ot the CPU
as 32K*8). There may be other machiens that did a simialr thing, of course.
