Those were really the fun days of computing and digital logic
circuits.
Nowadays, the Zx80's appeal would be in controlling things.
There's little that you can't now do *better* that you would
previously have used a CP/M box for.

Maybe I'll just look at them.
Again, in the context of "control" (i.e., deeply embedded),
you would likely also need similar speed grade peripherals
to do anything.

I had a particular fondness for the '180 (and '7180!) as it
wasn't crippled by the tiny address space (64K memory + 64K I/O)
of the Z80. Over the years, I've come to realize that you usually
need more space for *code* than data!
