Possibly. If I can get any of it to work. :-)  I think I'm short of a usable
MOS ROM at present - I've got one of the MOS releases for the 6809 boards, but
all the ROMs I have for the 6502 side of things are customer specials that
just do process control stuff.

The previous owner has MOS source for the 6809 side, along with FLEX and
various dev tools; I'm hoping that there's some 6502 MOS source in there too!

Time's just a little tight to be fiddling with it right now, unfortunately :(

Yeah, some of it's paid work, plus the odd data recovery job comes along once
in a while too. I do tend to do the house husband role out when living in the
US though (although setting up shop doing data recovery there is very
tempting, once all the legal citizenship shenanigans are out of the way - if
not it's boring desk job time!)

I'm just back in the UK for a short while though, so trying to sort out things
that'll never get shipped to the US; this latest Cube find was entirely out of
the blue via one of my Torch contacts though, hence I don't really have much
time to look at it all :-(

cheers
