Forgive me if I am displaying my ignorance, but I thought that to get the
V20 into 8080 mode required a hardware reset of the processor. How will a 
piece of software accomplish this? Also what do you do about CP/M software 
written with Z80 opcodes?

Believe me, if the above is possible, I would *definitely* be interested
in NECV2080.COM. Will it also work for the V30 as well? I have one in my 
AT&T 6300. I also have some CP/M software that I would be interested in
porting if it can be run simply by renaming the file!
