Yeah Willard I am aware of that.  I dabbled in some 8085 coding back in the 
80’s, but haven’t touched it since.  Still need to wrap my head around the 
mixed Address and Data bus.  I know it is all in the timing on the clock.

I think since not much is available in to 102 directly I am going to go cross 
assembler to start with.  First project I think I will do for myself is to get 
more RAM.  I have a few different MMU’s in schematic that I have made that I 
want to try.  I also have a couple of projects in mind to tie the 100/102 to a 
FPGA for much more (VGA, MMU’s and much more)
