But maybe we should solve that one - The poor guy 8749 _really_ was an 8-bit processor. And not the worst that Intel ever built.The successors are still around in the embedded industry.

   Some mildly off-topic info:
- 8748/49 was THE processor of choice for PC keyboards. Before USB, **all** of them used 8748 or 8749 microcontrollers, even in die form.
   - Up to the 386, all PCs had one of them in Keyboard input
- And after the 386, much of them had it too, but integrated in bigger ASICs
