Thanks folks for all the discussion about Cloud 9. Is anyone actually interested in the Color Computer system? Thanks! smp

OK. I get it. I was surprised myself, as I thought I had more than that into it. Price reduced to $400 plus shipping. smp

FYI: Switch-A-Roo = $45 https://cocoman.onlineweb.shop/product/switch-a-roo-scart-cable SCART-to-HDMI = $40...

As I’m getting up there in age, and no one else around me is interested in vintage computers, I am slowly selling off my systems that have fallen into disuse. Tonight, I offer my loaded CoCo 3 system: - CoCo 3 from Cloud 9, with 6309 and 2MB memory - CoCo SDC Floppy Emulator - Switch-A-Roo...

Sorry, no, it was not me. smp

Many thanks to RetroAND for your persistence in gaining the attention of the Mods! smp

@stepleton : Indeed, you are correct. From time to time there is a discussion here about these old IBM systems. They’ve been very interesting to me. I had hoped with the forum re-organization that those discussions would be collected here. Alas, not yet. smp

The subject line says it all. smp

I ran CPUTEST and timed it from when the sign-on message appeared until it indicated CPU TESTS OK: Roughly 2 minutes and 7 seconds +/- a couple of seconds for my reaction times with the stopwatch. Again, this is with my Altair 8800c with replica 8080 CPU board running at 2MHz with 64K RAM &...

I ran CPUTEST.COM on my H8 with a Z-80 CPU running at 16 MHz with 64K RAM and CP/M. The results were the same as above, aside from indicating a Z80 CPU, and much faster to complete. smp

OK! I received the CPUTEST.COM file (thanks) and I ran the program on my Altair 8800c with replica 8080 CPU board running at 2MHz with 64K RAM & CP/M. Here are the results:

I sent a DM about my Altair 8800c with replica 8080 CPU board running at 2MHz with 64K RAM & CP/M. All I need is the .COM file to be tested to be emailed to me. I also have a Heathkit H8 with a Z-80 CPU that can run 2, 4, 8, & 16 MHz with 64K RAM and CP/M. Again, all I need is the .COM file...

FWIW, I've been looking any the new lineup since the beginning, and I like it. Will the Mods be moving IBM (Non-PC) topics into the new forum from wherever they are scattered? Thanks to the Admins and the Mods for all the good work they do here! smp

The current OS has an app called 'Automator'. It's been in there for quite a while, but I've never used it. smp

Lots of info and assistance is available from the SEBHC: https://github.com/sebhc/sebhc/wiki smp
