Heh, that is what I and a highschool friend tried to accomplish with a
Commodore-64 and its floppy drive. Both C64 and floppy had a
65XX-family processor inside (interesting? absurd?). The memorybank
shared between the two processors replaced the traditional serial line
for communication between floppy drive and C64. Those were the days ;-}.
