[sdiy] Andromeda A6 hardware questions

[cheater cheater]

Hi guys,
a topic popped up on AH lately with people asking about the
possibility and feasibility of modifying the A6 software. I think it
wouldn't be *such* a terrible project; does anyone know how the
hardware platform is laid out?

- what MCUs are there? Has anyone got specific model numbers?
- are there any dev boards with that chip/chips still available?
- Are there any emulators?
- how is the program stored? is this hackable?
- are there any JTAG headers there?
- how does the MCU communicate with the analogue VLSI's?
- are there any possibilities for expandability - unused I/O pins etc?
- are there any other specific things to know about the hardware?

Thanks
D.
