[SunRescue] Re: Best wishes for Bill...

[Ken Hansen]

I remember the 1802 from the Popular Electronics articles - I always wanted
to build one of those "ELF"s as they were called, but by the time my "chops"
matched my interests the industry had moved on to the Intel 8088 CPU (Steve
C. from BYTE had a great multi-user project based on the 8088 CPU - wnated
to build that too, wound up buying a SYM-1 system... 6501 and a whole K of
RAM...;^)
