The last #Z80 platform ever made hasn't been made yet.

Any Z80 platform currently made could be in the running for that title. Or maybe a future Z80 platform.

@rc2014 Feel free to take any bets against your prediction. I can safely guarantee they will lose.

@rc2014 It was I think meant to be talking about the last mainstream commercial Z80 platform which is probably the case.

It's a weird device though.

@rc2014 Although presumably with the cessation of manufacture of the chips, any long-term future is going to be in FPGAs, variants, or reproductions.

@rc2014 A number of architectures have not seen their end which, on the face of it, gives me hope in this era of closed-box 1 trillion transistors
