I have an unused Motorola M6800 eval kit here, all
of the parts are still in plastic, it's dated 1976.
The 1Mhz clock is half the size of my thumb, and
it has 1k RAM. Some day this will be worth a few
bucks. I had a bunch of Intel 4004 processors
(1971, first microprocessor) along with the rest
of the companion chips, but I sold them, I will
regret that I'm sure. 8 million instructions for
$6.45 is quite amazing.
