I don't remember what the problem was, but I had a discussion
with about it back then. Indeed, there was something missing
that Megan would work on ...
I used the RT-11 distribution that comes with SIMH, I still do
in SIMH. I will give it an other try in a couple of weeks.
I know Zork is difficult to find :-) but there *must* be
someone out there that has a copy (and is willing to make that
available). I do not need the original disk, a copy or a .zip
file would be great!

dont have the model number handy, was the first unit
to sport a flat screen (but my SX-64 has a pretty flat
screen...hmmmm. Perhaps the curvature is more
pronounced on larger tubes, making teensy weensy ones
seem flatter). Plugged in a VGA signal...ewwww. What a
mess. Not likely Id simply find a toasted cap I bet.

OK, what's the earliest graphics display system held by any of you
collectors?
"graphics display system" is anything that creates a graphics image
with a display: calligraphic, storage tube, plasma, raster, etc.
Block character graphics don't count (or I would include my Commodore
CBM 8032 and all the stupid terminals :).
My timeline goes like this, based on year introduced:
196?: Evans & Sutherland PS-300 terminal
197?: Tektronix 4010 terminal
1974: Tektronix 4014 terminal
1977: Hewlett-Packard 2648A terminal
Hewlett-Packard 1350A graphics translator
1979: Atari 800 microcomputer
1981: IBM PC CGA microcomputer
1983: Televideo TS-803 microcomputer
1984: Megatek Whizzard 1645 terminal
Diser Eve workstation
1984?: Tektronix 4105 terminal
1985: Sun 3/110 workstation
1986: Hewlett-Packard 2397A terminal
1988: NCD 14p X terminal
1989: Evans & Sutherland ESV workstation
1991: Evans & Sutherland Freedom accelerator
1993: SGI Indigo^2 workstation
[]? - I don't know for certain, can you fill in the year?

ZDungeon is up to Release 13/Serial Number 040826 now. I would
pitch version 12 - it has a serious bug with answering the questions in
the endgame.
There will be another release at some point to fix a bug that can prevent
you from getting credit for all the treasures you pick up if the random
numbers fall the wrong way.

Back in the day (1985), I ran a native FORTRAN version of Adventure
compiled on our 11/750 running VMS 3.4 (3.6?). I think we ran the
same binary under 4.x and 5.x, but I can't recall if we re-linked the
.OBJ files or not.
It's rather trivial to take the RSX/RSTS Adventure sources and get
them working under VAX FORTRAN - a 32-bit environment and wads of
virtual space removes many of the restrictions imposed by a 16-bit
virtual space on an -11 OS. On a PDP-11, I think all ADVENT
implementations use overlays - not required on a VAX.

Does anyone have the CBIOS in source form for a Cifer 2684? I'm looking
into a project and need some info that could be answered easily by the
CBIOS.
Thanks,
