I ordered the MPX-16 serial card board from Circuit

I couldn't get it to work in a standard PC, so I figured that there was probably
something very different about the MPX's bus timing or signals and I lost interest in
the project.

I consider this to be the Circuit Cellar segment that marked the end of
BYTE as a non PC hardware/software magizine.
It is too bad BYTE never had more stuff on the 6800 end of the
market. Ben alias woodelf
