Dragon Data History Snippet
Re: Dragon Data History Snippet
Absolutely fascinating! And if you're really quick, you could snap one up too - bidding just got much too rich for me (and frustratingly, I see this item was relisted after failing to sell a few weeks back - I guess the article has piqued someone's interest).

That is pretty interesting! Nice to know the designers got to pursue further interesting projects.
I guess the 6809 would have been right out for such a device. The 6309 does go low power in SYNC though, so had it been around (not sure of timelines), it might have been a contender.
