Take a look inside a Cipher 99x tape drive.  Usually at least one or 
two Z8000s in there.  Does anyone remember the AMD-Siemens 
cooperative venture called AMC (Advanced Micro Computers)?  Does 
anyone own one of their development systems?  I've got the manuals 
for the assembler and the Z80-Z8000 translator packages (maybe 
something more, I don't know).  The assembler's one of more 
interesting varieties for the time.
