We hope to make it available shortly.  One snag -- if you download CP/M and
the utilities, there is no way to get the utilities into the CP/M format.
The utility to transfer files from TOS disk format to CP/M disk format
happens to be written under CP/M.  If any of our European friends know of a
solution to this (it is rumored that CP/M is being passed around on BBSs
over there) please let me know right away!

The PC emulator will be a bit more costly than described and will function a
whole lot better.  It will be approximately the same speed as a PC.  It
should pass the FS test.
