I spent a little time at lunch puzzling over the circuit.  I'll have

here are a Z8 processor (Z8601), a static RAM, and an EPROM.

Seems like a lot of firepower for a floppy controller, so maybe this
is something else.  Doesn't the Profile circuitry use a Z8?

I can't remember, but it definitely had some sort of CPU in there.
