Wintermute_BBS , 7 days ago to random so much for #Manjaro #Linux support for the #PinebookA64 ... 🤷 ... wasn't one of the big arguments pro #OSS that it would give #old #hardware an extended lifespan? Heck, the PBA64 is only eight years old! <irony> I can probably get better OS support for any #Z80 based CP/M system in the world! </irony> F*ck modern computing!

peter , 2 months ago to random An end of an era? The Z80 product line, specifically the Z84C00 is being end of life after 48 years of production. As usual for Zilog, nothing on their website. This I got from the RMC discord but I did see this earlier today elsewhere https://www.timeextension.com/news/2024/04/the-processor-used-in-pac-man-is-being-discontinued-48-years-after-it-launched #retroComputing #Z80 #cpu #eol
