Are you sure about the Soroc having an 1802? Which model of Soroc? I
thought Sorocs used z80s. The one sitting next to me here (an IQ-135)
definitely has a z80. It does have a 1602 UART though...

Speaking of which, how many Sorocs are still out there? Were they as
common in the rest of the world as they seemed in my corner of it? I
hardly ever hear of them anymore, even on e-bay.
