I dont get that? You want a 4mhz z80 or 5mhz 8085? Those are relatively
common. Now, if your doing PDP-8 era then 1.2uS instruction cycle was
the number, slow by todays standards.

In the early 80s, I really was trying to do what zilog eventually did,
make a Z280 more or less. That and figure out what this ucode
thing was all about.

Now that's depressing. ;)
