Really amazing.

The more I know the 6809 the more I think the problem with the chip was no
t the processos, but the 6847. Maybe it was the reason Tandy made the GIME
chip on CoCo 3. Video is really the upper limit of the plataform. At those
times the video chip make a huge difference.

Nice job Luis!
