Yes Maurits,
Thats the one,It had about 128k of roms on board and was a very small OS as
far as I can remember.
I allways wonder what has happened to the companys that produced these oddities
of the computer world.
The daft thing it,When you have a multi platform system the software
manufacturers must make more money as there are more customers out there.
Still I dont suppose they will all get together and standardize,Seems to me that
there are a lot of incompatibility problems just with in the IBM market,Ever
one setting there own standards.
