The 8088 and 8080 are not binary compatible, they're mostly source compatible.

The 8088 and 8080 are not binary compatible, they're mostly source compatible.
- rbanffy 2y agoI didn't say that - I mentioned that, previously, 8080 and 8085 shared the same ISA with different implementations.
- bryanlarsen 2y agoAnd I didn't contradict you, I clarified.
- rbanffy 2y agoBeing source compatible was quite clever, BTW. Still, I wish the ia432 succeeded, or the TMS9900 was picked for the IBM PC. Would be a much nicer world.
