3205's were part of the 3000 series bit slice
family.
I don't know when they started these but I think it
was before MDS800's because they used 3001/3002's in
the floppy disk controller for these. This puts them in
at least the 8080 or 8008 time frame someplace. Maybe
even earlier.
Yep. Also the 300x was used to proto the 8080, or so the
story goes. I'd seen a 300x based 8080 (ran at 4mhz then)
once.
