 Infu#0256 | so Im cutting them slack here | 19:44:00 |
| Infu#0256 | by "better" I mean that simple googling of both tells me that Z80-CPU is made as 8080A successor | 19:45:04 |

 kevtris#8534 | intel called the 8080 the "i80" | 22:17:57 |
| kevtris#8534 | so zilog made the Z80! | 22:18:02 |
| kevtris#8534 | I always found that kinda funny. imagine if the modern day 2021 era legal system was in force in the 70's | 22:18:31 |
| kevtris#8534 | zilog would've been shut down and put out of business | 22:18:39 |
| kevtris#8534 | and we'd been set way back on PCs, since IBM would've shut down all the clone makers | 22:19:31 |
| kevtris#8534 | even MOS would've been put out of business by motorola, because it was former motorola engineers that left to start it. zilog was formed by former intel engineers AFAIR. so both would've been shut down and mired in courts for a decade about trade secrets, blah blah blah | 22:20:19 |
| kevtris#8534 | without the Z80 and 6502, computers, video games, and tons of other things would've been set back a decade or more | 22:24:47 |
 TheRealJavierBlitse#0900 | how far would we be set back if "illegal" clones never existed? | 22:26:20 |
| TheRealJavierBlitse#0900 | especially famiclones | 22:27:12 |
| kevtris#8534 | probably not very far for those | 22:27:44 |
| kevtris#8534 | but a lot of people in developing countries wouldn't have had video games for a long time | 22:27:59 |

|  shiro#0727 changed their profile picture. | 00:48:52 |
 Drush#1939 | AFAIK the z80 was really well engineered for its time, though | 12:31:05 |

| toxa#0473 | yes, indeed. | 12:32:41 |
| Infu#0256 | I'm ridiculing the ad for stating the obvious, not the chip - I'm actually praising it | 12:43:47 |
