Subject: Re: Ferguson Big Board
The Ferguson Big Board, sometimes refered to the Big Board II, is a
neat little machine. It has all of the features mentioned, plus a
SCSI interface that will talk to a Xebec hard disk host adapter and
then a hard disk. The BIOS supposedly supports it already, I don't
know of anyone running a hard disk on one though. The Video is neat
and you can use it as is or write your own emulator for your particular
terminal. All in all a neat system. The FBB can be purchased from
Halted Specialties Corp in Sunnyvale A&T for $545 their # is
(408) 732-1573. It does not come with CP/M but they sell CP/M 2.2
for $150. You can also get the bare board and ROM set (Monitor, Character
generator) for $245.
