What runs on the 6809 for the apple II? What is OS9?
OS9 was a "UNIX like" multitasking OS for the 6809. Later ported to 68000.
Where is the manual?
I've added one manual - the "technical brief".
A coprocessor sounds neat, but I've yet to see any useful examples of software running on them.
There were quite a few "useful examples" of software running on the z80
boards for Apple that sold a lot of such cards. With the 6809 I agree -
not much.
