Subject: Info needed
Greetings.
I was given a computer that I have no docs on. It consists of a
keyboard, S100 card-cage, and power supply. It came with 2 8" drives.
The computer is made by the "ProcessorTechnology" and is called "SoI
Terminal Computer" Model # 20.
I has several slots on the back: Parallel, Serial, Casette interface.
There is also a card that controls the 2 8" drives with its own ribbon
cable.
I have a box of disks for it: CP/M-CDOS (FIG-FORTH) V1.2 8080 & Z80
(FORTH READABLE), MICROSOFT BASIC V5.03, UTILITY PROGRAMS, 48K WORK
DISK, FORTH SCREENS, 8080 FORTH, FOTH Z-80 CP/M (INCLUDING FLOATING
POINT), WORD PROCESSING, some more cryptic-labeled disks.
The card-cage has these cards: 2708 module (personality module), Disk
Jockey 2D/B (2D mod B) Rev 3, 16K static RAM (MM16K14) by The Memory
Merchant, 32K static RAM by Industrial Micro Systems.
Anyone have/had/remember one of these? It says that it is (C) by
ProcessorTechnology in 1976....so I guess it's been a while.
What I want is some info about how to boot it from the floppy drive(s)
and what some of the DIP switches do. Anything...
Take care.
P.S. By the way, what is a "Tandy Model 16"? Interesting?
Someone is selling them for $25, broken... Just wandering...

Did you hear? Some Poles burned the Russian flag near the Soviet embassy,
in Poland. :-) :-) Why can't CIA just put up $200 million for Saddam's head?
