Re: A mathematical demo The most sophisticated hardware I ever met is a matchbox sized "matchbox" - http://mdfs.net/Software/Tube/Matchbox/ The next video shows its z80 at 112 Mhz (!) with the mathematical demo.
Happy birthday! I want to be 43 too. Some ppl here are above 50... Some ppl can work even at 90... I spent some time with 6809 datasheet. IMHO 6502 maybe faster... All Motorola chips are a bit too theoretical and with the good features they are a bit clumsy for the practical tasks EDIT. Pi-pack 18 is just released. It contains the newer faster versions for 6502 based machines and a version for 6809 based Dragon-32/64. So it is possible to compare 6809 and 6502 at their edges. The results show that 6809 at 1.78 MHz matches 6502 at 2 MHz. The second accumulator gives a big advantage to 6809. However (IMHO) 6809 was overestimated... So C+4 is still the fastest. :)
