As far as i know, there was a U8001 (Z8001 CPU Clone) in the System
P8000 which run a System III based Unix System named "Wega"
It was designed and produced by Company EAW from East-Berlin GDR (German
Democratic Republic)

There's been a lot of discussion about early Unix
on Intel, National
Semi, Motorola, and Sparc processors. I don't recall if Unix ran on
the Z8000, and if not, why not.
As I remember the Z8000 was going to be the great white hope that
would continue Zilog's success with the Z80 into modern times.
But, it obviously didn't happen.
Why?
