For the UK followers of the V20 discussion.

VSI components are supplying an evaluation kit for the V20 processor.
For a mere #32 + VAT, you get about 7 devices including the CPU
(uPD70108), clock gen, int controller, CTC, SCU (8251-alike), buffers etc.

I'm going to plug the processor into my IBM PC and see what happens.
If anybody out there has tried this and has problems and/or comments, I'd
like to hear from you.


VSI are on Harlow (0279) 29666.
