De Fabrice Franc?s:
"Sur le newsgroup, Mike a forward? une info du site 6502.org: un gars
propose de servir d'interm?diaire pour grouper des commandes de
processeurs WDC. Il y a des 65C02, des 65C816 et des versions
microcontroleurs de ces cpus (avec des I/O et des timers int?gr?s, des
d?codages d'adresses, etc). Les 65C02 et 65C816 peuvent tourner ? 14 MHz
(!). Et WDC fabrique aussi des 65C22 qui monte jusqu'? 10 MHz... Andr?
Majorel est int?ress? (moi aussi), et proposait de faire un sous-groupe
fran?ais pour diminuer les frais de port..."

English: Here is a copy of recents messages on com.sys.oric
Fabrice Frances and Andre Majorel are interested for a grouped order.

Thanks for the tip. I'm considering getting some 6502, 6522 and
65816. www.e44.com sells 65C02 P2 (2 MHz) for 15.50 EUR apiece.

However, in my experience, ordering from the US can easily be
much more expensive than it looks at first sight, because of the
money transfer, customs and shipping costs. To keep the price
per unit down, we probably want to make a group order from
Europe, and dispatch locally. Is anyone else interested ?

[finger raised]
Here, here ! :-)
I'm going to look if we can order '802 too, this one is a dream for our
Orics...
But I'm also interested in the '816, and maybe some of the microcontrollers
too...
I'm checking the page and will tell you...
I'm sure there are other people interested, but they don't read the
newsgroup (like Thierry Bestel, Claude Sittler, Jean Boileau, Andr? Ch?ramy
and others...)
Who can forward this information to the mailing-list ?

Fabrice

Mhhh... it seems WDC doesn't produce '802 anymore...
But I still have a hope to adapt the 40-pin DIP '816 for the Oric,
so, count me in for 4 pieces.
And 4 pieces of 65C22 too (10 MHz, whow...)
Oh, is the 65C02 really running at up to 14 MHz ?
I want two of them too !
