Correct on it being the Zilog Z8, a single chip microprocessor, incorrect on
it being the one with the on-board Basic interpreter. The Z8681 is a ROMless
Z8 chip. The Z8671 has the on-board Basic interpreter.

If the original requestor wants a photocopy of the Z8681 data sheets, please
e-mail me a USPS (US Mail) address.
