If you think that Zilog is shipping samples of the Z80000, I've got some
swampland in Florida that you might be interested in...

Zilog has a habit of announcing products which are still being designed,
let alone being sampled!  What about their Z800 upward-compatible Z80
chip?  I've yet to see that, and it was announced over a year ago.
You should approach anything that Zilog says about chip availability with a
healthy skepticism.  I'd love to be proved wrong here, but my instincts
haven't failed me yet.
