[Demon-Xanth]

...time to get sentimental.

6502
6800
8088

Uh, you forgot the 8086...
BTW, 8088 was good and fast but very inflexible. As I understand it that is why they went to the slower but more friendly 8086.

Guess my vote is for the 8088, it still ran ACAD 10 about 4 years ago.

I'm limiting the poll to 8 bit CPUs (so in the fingers option you can't use your thumbs)

does the Z80 count?

I guess that one would get lumped in with the 8088 (iirc they were pin compatible)
