I am looking at an inexpensive CP/M system for home.  I also have an
800XL.  I understand that a CP/M box with a 19.2Kb serial port can be
made to look like an Atari disk drive.  I have seen some material
from CPMUG to support such an application.  Anyone else done this?
Benefits/drawbacks?  I would suspect that copy-protected material
would probably choke in this arrangement, but that is not a concern.
Please reply by mail.  Thanks in advance.
