	Recently I read a american electronics journal
	( Electronic Design I think, but it's not sure ).

	There was article about Zilogs new processor Z280,
	which is (according text) Z80:s superset with
	16-bit arithmetic, memory management, user/supervisor states,
	on chip timers, dma and cache.
	Clockspeed is 10 MHz (future 25 MHz) 

	When I was reading article, I start to wonder,
	would there be any use for this kind of product,
	or is this or last strike of Z80-empire.

	Any opinions?
