Thanks for the uploads! I will check today but I believe I've got hardcopy of the datasheets/appnotes you have -- Burgess also grouped design docs into binders, so I have his originals. It's a habit I started carrying over to my own projects a number of years ago, never have to worry about something being deleted by accident, a format becoming hard to read (switched EAGLE CAD -> KiCAD 9 years ago), etc. Plus, I find it easier to read dead tree reference material when working with something on the bench!

We did a R6501Q based SBC a number of years ago, and eventually got RSC FORTH kernel and development ROMs running on it. We'd found a copy of the ROM object code in Burgess's archives and got it going from that. I want to eventually add a floppy controller to it, a friend had been working on replacing some of the floppy-based screen storage with CompactFlash backed storage, but got busy on other things.

What was the intended purpose for your R65F11 hacking?
