Oh man! I wrote a disassembler for the Z80 (TRS-80) back in ‘79. Is no one using that any more? I’m bummed, now. What am I going to do with all these cassette tapes?

Actually I was researching the subject some months back and was pleasantly surprised to find a resurgence of interest in the lowly Z80, with modernized versions currently available that are popular and inexpensive platforms for teaching microprocessor basics. In short, it looks like reports of the death of the modest 8-bit platform many of us learned on might be greatly exaggerated.
