I worked with the Zon XL jr. back in the early 80's for
FirstInterstate Bank. They were a dime a dozen then and must
still be VERY inexspensive because I still see them all over
the place.

One used an emulator on the pc side to build and test what you
want it to do and then one programed the device through the
serial port.

What stands out most in my mind is how simple it was to get it
going. I had the first test functioning in less that a week
from a cold start.
