I think that is the designers (Rod Holt?) website. Apparently he won a legal battle to
use the term "first microprocessor" for whatever that is worth.
Details were published in 1998 and the chip was available approximately
never (I presume, unless you were building a Tomcat) so I'm not sure you
should count it. Perhaps "first microprocessor, until someone else
claims another secret design that was even earlier" would be a more
accurate claim?
