According to the buyer the C8080 is ultra-rare (Rare as in 4
or 5 known to still exist) so the money he spent was very
reasonable under the circumstances.
I'll have to check mine again. I'm now pretty sure that at
least one is an 8080A and probably both.

Wow. I had no idea that was the reason for the high
bid.
And to think, I've (theoretically) got $3,600
in two
chips
at home. . .
Hmmmm.

Hi
You realize that these need to be early C8080 and not
C8080A or i8080 anything like that.
I wonder if this might have something to do with
the NASA buys?
