[net.micro] Orphaned 6809?

knudsen (11/09/82)

Just out of curiosity -- has anyone ever heard of any commercial
system (board, box, controller, toy, game, ...)
using the Motorola 6809 uP chip (an improved (!!!) 6800,
better than 6502 even (?)) ?
I already know about Radio Shack Color Computer.  Any others?

csc (11/10/82)

Other systems with 6809 uPs:
The Waterloo/Commodore SuperPET
South West Technical Products system
GIMIX, Inc. system
Motorola's EXORciser system

Note that SWTP's and GIMIX's systems run Flex, UniFlex, or OS-9.
UniFlex is supposed to be UN*X like.

RE: orphaned 6809 question of a while back...


South West Tech Products	makes 6809 system running FLEX-09
				or UNIFLEX		

GIMIX				makes an even better system running FLEX-09
				or UNIFLEX  or OS-9

and a few others.. all of these systems are very good and can handle multiple
users (aprox 15)  and have memory management chips
