Subject: Plu*Perfect Systems and TurboROM

Bill Swan asked: "Be that as it may - the Kaypro in question is vanilla, so
where can I get a 'TurboROM' or 'KROM', and how much is *that*?  Also, do
you have an address for Plu*Perfect?"

First for the address of Plu*Perfect:

       Plu*Perfect Systems
       410 23rd Street
       Santa Monica, CA 90402
       213-393-6105 (evenings)

The TurboROM, developed by Plu*Perfect, is available from Advent at the
following address:

       Advent Products
       3154-F LaPalma Avenue
       Anaheim, CA 92806
       714-630-0446

Advent specializes in Kaypro computer add-ons of various sorts.  I believe
that the TurboROM costs about $60 and, from what I have heard from owners,
it is well worth the price: much faster and more flexible disk operations
and other improvements in the operation of the computer.

I am less sure of the K-ROM.  I believe that is the modified Kaypro ROM
offered by the publishers of MicroCornucopia magazine.  My feeling is that
the TurboROM offers a wider range of features and support.  For example,
Plu*Perfect sells a program called Multicopy that is like Uniform and allows
the TurboROM-equipped Kaypro to handle many CP/M disk formats as native
formats and to work with amazing speed.

Bridger Mitchell, the principal of Plu*Perfect, is a regular reader and
contributor to this newsgroup, but the current rules prohibit him from
promoting his own products.  I'm sure he will be happy to answer any
technical questions, however.
