Subject: CBM 900
What information is there on the CBM 900? I was
mailed by someone who has
a working one and is looking for more information on the machine.
What do you need? I have the Coherent-Disk the Manual and some technical
diagramms for the C900.
Any info
would be lovely. Btw, his machine is apparently a prototype (it says so
somewhere -- probably a sticker or something).
Yes ist is a prototype. According to Jim Brains "cbmmodel":
C900 Series: Prototype UNIX System, dropped after Amiga acquisition
Zilog Z8000 CPU, Runs Coherent 0.7.3, UNIX 7 clone,
Built-In Floppy, HD, IEEE-488. MFM Disk Controller, 1MB
9600 bps, 500 units made. Came in two versions.
