=== Microprocessor ===
The CPU selected to serve as the core of the system was the Intel 8085. However, as the component references were ofuscated identifying the CPU was not a straightforward task. It was hinted that the component with reference 4178015 could be the part. To confirm the true identity of the integrated circuit, an exchange with a legit 8085 was done: the remarked part went into a [[Alphatronic P2|P2]] CPU board and the P2 CPU went in place of the unknown component. The test went successfully and the cross reference was proved as fact.
