The variant he uses is a static core so you can clock it step by step. In 
the video he does a cute thing by tying data lines to create a no-op that 
then cycles through successive addresses. THe use of an Arduino as sort of 
a logic analyzer is interesting too. I don't need another project.

Peddle ate Motorola's lunch but later business decisions weren't stellar.
