[Coco] 6809 computer boards (was French Translation Compensation)

[Frank Swygert]

There are plans for a 6809/6845 based computer here: 
http://www.dunfield.com/products/projects.htm. I read about it -- uses a 
14.xx Mhz crystal for everything and runs around 7 Mhz (uses overclocked 
68B09E).  Not sure if the floppy controller chip used is available any 
more though.

There don't seem to be any US manufacturers using a 6809 for anything 
now. The 68HCxx controllers pretty much took over whatever market there 
was for the 6809. Maybe NitrOS-9 should be ported to something like a 
68HC11, which might be usable in a CoCo3 like system...
