I've been interested for some time in getting a simple DSP board up and
running in my Apple II Plus.  Please don't laugh, I would basically be
using the Apple as a source of power and a cheap interface to a SCSI hard
disk.  Since the 56000 host interface is 8 bits anyway, this seems like
a feasable project.  Anyone have any experience with designing for the
56000 from the ground up?

I realize that assembling programs would be difficult without a
cross-compiler that would run on the Apple itself.  I do have a full C
compiler which claims System 5 library compatibility.  Does anyone know
of a simple 56000 cross-assembler, perhaps from Motorola?

Thanks for any help, ideas or suggestions,
