If we're talking about machines with a Z80 and 6502, it would be remiss not to link back to the machine mentioned in the original message - the BBC micro, with its onboard 6502 and "Tube" interface which could take a second processor option, including - Z80 - 65C02 / 65C102 - NS 16032 (ahem 32016) - 8088 (Torch) / 80186, 80286 (last developed but never released) - ARM1 (Original ARM development board. Rare as hens teeth :) / ARM7 (someone having a laugh in later years) Typically the second processor would run as primary, using the original 6502 to handle input, display and I/O (and on 32016 you *really* wanted someone else to deal with anything time critical like interrupts :) David
