Anybody know anyting about an OLD (76ish) AMI system with a 6800 or 6809
CPU that ran Flex? I've been offered one and I'd like to know more about
it. The chassis and such are home made but the cards are factory made. I
have some pictures that I can provide if anyone wants to see them.

Rumor has it that Joe may have mentioned these words:

If it ran FLEX, it's *probably* 6809-based -- I dunno if there was ever a
FLEX for 6800; but there was even a version of FLEX for the Tandy CoCo.
Other than the requisite: "If you don't want it... don't forget me"
statement, I'd say 'Snag it' -> it's prolly at least as rare as an
Apple 1;
mind you, prolly not worth as much (yet) but IMHO, more interesting (as the
6809 *is* my favorite processor... ;-)
Oh, and I wouldn't mind seeing the pix...

I know about Flex. I'm trying to find more about the system itself.

And I understand that. However, someone else was questioning if Flex ran on
the 6800, and that was a reply to *that* question.

OK I'll send them to you directly. If there's enough interest I'll post
them on the web.
