Ah, hadn't seen that site before. Thank you :)

I went and checked the status of the Commander X16 real fast, and I see that as of Dec 2021, the COVID-induced chip shortage delayed the project by (estimated) 12 months, so I am likely to rule that out for the "init commit" (retro computing) project I am doing.

There's a guy on Write.as that is doing a lot of Z80 stuff, and something he shared reminded me of the possibility of me possibly doing a "breadboard" type of machine (board building w/o the need for soldering), and I'd like to go that route as I am not solder-ready, at the moment. Definitely a thing I will get into, but I sort of want to get the ball rolling on an initial hardware/software project and get the proper peripherals before I get into a "build".

I bookmarked the rc2014 site, though, so thank you again :)

~bartender, another hot coffee for me! Thank you much!
