[comp.os.cpm] Is the Z320 z-80 software compatible?

Saw a blurb the other day about a Z320 32-bit processor.
Is it object-code compatible with the Z80 (or any of
it's succesors?)

	Z320 is not Z80 compatible.
	As far as I know it is Z80000 packed into new box.
	So it is full 32-bit prosessor equipped
	with MMU and cache.
