Has anybody ever used a BCC180 computer? It's made by Micromint or CCI, uses a Hitachi HD64180 CPU, has a Z80 compatible instruction set, and an EPROM programmer board that can be added. It runs BASIC-180 that is ROMable (code can be compiled/saved to ROM/EPROM). It has 4 sockets for either 32K static RAM(62256) or EPROM (27256) and a SIMM socket for a 256K DRAM. The BASIC-180 ROM chip takes one socket and is 16K big. My question is this.... If I develop a program on the fly, then save it to RAM, if it fills more than 32K can I copy RAM using the EPROM programmer and the ROM monitor to two or more consecutive EPROMS then replace the BASIC-180 and monitor ROMs with them for auto-start of the program on reset? If there is a better newsgroup for this question could you direct me to it? I haven't found any groups concerning single board computers or Z80's yet.
