TCP/IP on eightbitters

How many eight-bit micros are there with TCP/IP implementations?
I can only think of the C64 and the MSX.
For the C64, there are AFAIK two implementations. One is a "normal" C64
program, with some clients for telnet, IRC and FTP, IIRC. The other one is a
UNIX look-a-like called Lunix, which will een handle ingoing telnet calls on a
slip line.
I believe both are available at
http://www.heilbronn.netsurf.de/~dallmann/c64.html

As for the MSX, the one implementation I know of is UZIX, which is about as
close to an eight-bit UNIX you can get. Its homepage is available at
http://www.dcc.unicamp.br/~adrcunha/uzix

I've heard some talk about a TCP/IP project for the Spectrum, as well.
Then there is the Ethernet card for the Apple II. Which protocols does it
support?

Amiga: (noun) The most technologically advanced computer that hardly anyone
cares about.
Use in sentence: "I wanted to buy an Amiga for its low price and great color
graphics, but everyone else seems to be using IBMs or Macintoshes. So, to
remain compatible with the rest of the world, I spent three times as much on a
Macintosh and got only half the graphics capability of an Amiga."
