Hi Rich and All
I found a list book as well in my pile but I'm glad
someone else has it up on the net. I was concerned about
copying it because of the weak binding.
Looking at the other AIM-65 stuff I have, I found
ROMs for BASIC, Forth and PASCAL. I have manuals for
the BASIC and Forth is Forth so doesn't need a manual
but I have no manual for the PASCAL. I can make dumps
of these ROM's if there is interest.

Can we make it sufficiently small that it might extend to TerraZuse?

Calculating in binary code is as easy as 01,10,11.

Well, I generally include inability to run microshaft software when
I'm trying to figure out how cool a system is. Those that you can
get a winders emulator for generally rank above those that run it
natively, and those that you can't get an emulator for above that,
A.S.O. -- I'm not sure how you'd turn that into a number to be used
in a calculation, though.
Perhaps that would be going the wrong way -- it would be simple just
to find the minimal amount of internal storage required for a
"supported" system, in comparison to the space required by the full
system, and to subtract from the score based on that number. That
would certainly harm more "modern" systems which run microsoft software ;)
This "internal storage density" would probably be something like:
(<Fixed-Media> + <RAM> + <ROM>)/Meters^3 (where the storage should be
represented in some suitably large or small unit)

Hi
I have dibbs on page 56 ( I'm a little lazy ).

What about immersion cooling?

If you look on my Web site, I have scans of all of the AIM manuals as well
as the monitor listing, schematics and ROM dumps.

I'd be happy to scan the content and make it available as a G4 TIF file.
Now,
I probably have that stuff somewhere as well, but ...
Joe Rigdon once said he had an AIM complete with the BASIC and ASM roms.
I'd
assume that the assembler uses the syntax in which the ROMs are written,
which
would help. ISTR he wanted to make the ROMs available, but didn't have an
EPROM programmer at the time, and didn't know how to dump the ROMs without
one.
Let me know off-list how we can handle the listings.

I have a Zenith 8" dual disk drive unit that I need to sell so. It has two
Shugart 860-1s in it. Anyone interested before it gets to eBay.

Actually, how about we call it a "metric ton," which could be
written in Britain as "metric tonne..." *duck*
