Hi,

...
 ....relative times of the Beeb and the 6809-based
System
CPU board? I would have thoguht the Beeb could have been
designed to use the 6809. 
I must admit I was disappointed at the time that they didn't choose the 6809 
for the Beeb, though not entirely surprised given their past history.

Surprising too that Acorn never produced a 6809 second processor. Did any 
third parties like Torch ever make one?

  TTFN - Pete.
