Information Technology takes the lasts (more than) 20 years of my life and my love for it begun in 1979 when i bought an electronic kit: a Z80 micro.
This site is devoted to what is (again) my hobby, the thing that get my time when i don't have to work or stay with my family: Z80 and other "old" fun stuffs.
I hope electronics and more in general retrocomputing are interesting for you as they are for me...

Another gift from indefatigable Emmanuel has arrived . This time is a book about "Z-80 ASSEMBLY LANGUAGE UNDER TurboDOS" by R. Roger Breton and a retyped document describing TurboDOS. Here a little extract for those who don't knows what TurboDOS is: "The TurboDOS operating system is a product of Software 2000, Inc., and is trademarked and copyrighted by them. At MuSYS Corp., we have used TurboDOS in conjunction with various slave processor boards to construct a wide variety of S-100 Bus-based computer systems, ranging from two to over sixty users. TurboDOS is designed for multiprocessor networks of Z-80-based computers, although single-user versions are available. Extensive use is made of the Z-80 instruction set to achieve a highly table-oriented and re-entrant architecture, which is very adaptable to the user's environment. In addition to MuSYS, many companies are selling TurboDOS for specific hardware configurations, on an OEM basis. This is one of the primary distinctions with other multiprocessor operating systems, which are supported by only a single vendor."

In february 2009 Emmanuel Roche send his work on PLMX compiler to me asking for its publication. Not so quickly (almost four months later) i've finally put online a page for the public. I have to say that i'm terribly sorry for this delay. Hope to be more responsive next time!!

A little vacation between christmas and the end of the year gives me the time to add some content to the archive section. :)
First a page is online giving access to the documents posted on comp.os.com by Emmanuel Roche aka "French Luser". All the material has been collected and organized by Herb Johnson who also solicited for documents archiving.
Second: a piece of software that seems lost has been "revived" thanks to Paul A. MacDiarmid. It's the multitasking basic compiler MTBASIC and its manual.
A little great success for the CP/M community.
Happy brand new year to everyone!

CMS for this site (Mambo) has been upgraded to its latest version 4.6.1. Since this is a major upgrade it takes some time to have all the works done... Now i hope to have again my head on real site content that is much more funny :-))
However please
of any broken link or anomaly you find. Thanks.
A new section has been opened to contain downloadable files. I have to organize what i wish to make available, but in the meantime, you can find here an image of Rlee Peters's collected CP/M files...
