on re-reading your posting, I see you want EEPROM program memory. I guess that means you're stuck with the 68HC11. (The TI TMS370 has EEPROM _data_ memory.) One alternative is to put a boot-loader in EPROM, and upload from a serial EEPROM. You can talk to the EEPROM through either a couple of parallel port pins or using the synchronous serial I/O port. Typical serial EEPROM's hold up to 2K bits and cost about $1 (in quantity, samples are usually free).
