Hello all,
I've recorded a film for the Holborn 6500 a few years ago and I thought it s*cked... So I have never put it online... But since this is probably the only working Holborn 6500 in the world I thought it is fun to put it on youtube anyway... So that was what I did tonight...
For those who don't know the Holborn 6500, it was the successor of the Holborn 6100 computer. The Holborn computers were designed by Dutch engineers and I have visited several of them a few years back. That gave me oppertunity to get a lot of (background) information, software, source code, documentation etc...
Holborn 6500
Z80 cpu
192KB of system memory (the maximum)
Capable of running CP/M and MP/M (for MP/M the second terminal can be connected to the serial port. So it is a two user system)
Two 1.2MB floppy drives (formatted as 77 track 8 inch disks)
External hard disk with a Xebec 1410 controller inside (two 5MB partitions)
Regards, Roland
