Some of the early slow ones (under 200mhz) are in the used market for
under a couple hundred. The other approches witll cost that much or more
for superfast memory.

< Tell me more... what are Verilog, Xilinx or Altera?

FPGA, Field programable gate arrays. The fast ones are down in the
2.5ns range per gate.

< Anyone know if Zilog is going to beef up the Zx80 line????

The z380 series is that. There is already a z382.
