I have a few tubes of NOS Z8 micros (40 pin DIP) which are mask ROM types

Anyone interested in these or should I just bin them?

I have one of those chips - and therefore would appreciate a back up.

I also have one from Micromint programmed with Forth.

I am not sure if the code would easily move to a modern flash programmable Z8, nor if those devices have enough ram to make it a worthwhile undertaking.

I'm in the UK as you probably know.
