Is anyone interested with the Z80?

COMPACT

The Z80 is still manufactured today and I was wondering whether there is any interest for a community or discussion group.

  • Omg. Doesn't sound like much, but I actually have a working serial interface working with basic working. Thanks for everyone's help but asking my somewhat dumb questions.

     

    Where do you people usually get your components and parts from?  I live in Connecticut, USA. I have been ordering from jameco. They are located in California.  Shipping is usually 4-5 days. Mouser is closer being in the mid West . Also digikey is in the same location. What area your experiences with these places or others in the us?  Shipping is usually $5 from jameco.

     

    Thank you again. I'm sure I'll have more questions, but I finally have something working and doing something.

    That's really quick to write your own BASIC!

    Did you know that 8080 Microsoft BASIC was written on a PDP-10?

     

    Please post some pics, vids and schematic diagrams of your new system in action.

     

    I get many of my components from Element14!

    I hunt around for obsolete components that are not stocked by Element14 but beware of Chinese counterfeits!
