There's a company down in Florida that sells some products to let
you run old ISIS (8080) programs on ordinary PCs.  I've been using
it at work for a few years.  Anything is better than the dreaded
blue boxes.

The company is
       Micro Interfaces
       16359 N.W. 57th Ave.
       Hialeah, Florida (USA) 33014
       (305) 623-9262
       1-800-637-7226
       Telex 5106004680 MICRO INTER CO.

I think an older address is:
       Micro Interfaces Corporation
       Suite #200, 18590 N.W. 67th Avenue
       Miami, Florida  33015
       (305) 823-8088

There programs love to begin each listing file with their stupid
header.  It really annoys me.  To stop their program from generating
the stupid headers, use debug to find LST in the .EXE files and change
it to lst (lowercase).  

Good luck, I hope this makes it all the way back to Europe.
