Interesting.  This isn't exactly related to Plan 9, but I've got a question:
where do people get this type of hardware?  I've looked for solo CPU's and
things, and basically can't find them.  You'd think it wouldn't be so hard
to find a Z80 and a socket and some breadboard to plug it into, but it's
remarkably hard....
