Hi Joe, 
I was wondering the other day if Cubix was ever adapted to Grant's 6 Chip 6809 Computer design.  I reckon it has been.  I'll have to look at that!  Thanks for mentioning this.  This could of course be another option rom for the Kipper SBC v1 since it faithfully adheres to Grant's original design.  Maybe even a 27256 with a switching circuit on the A15 pin.  Hummm...  Another feature to add.  :)

Cool link, I have never heard of this project. They also mention Cubix running on Searle's 6809 SBC. I just downloaded Cubix and I think I'm going to try to run it on the Kipper SBC :)
