I love hacking with Z80s. I consider myself very
lucky that much of
my work these days is done in the embedded systems world, where Z80s
(albeit at 50MHz with 24-bit address buses) are alive and well. It's
neat to see how it has made the transition from mainstream
general-purpose processor to common embedded processor. (and I'll bet
Zilog sure is happy about it!)
I'm also quite comfortable with the z80, and sure wouldn't mind finding some
way to actually get paid for working with them... :-)
