CP/M was for the REAL 8 bit systems.
So did it matter? You ran Basic or played games

Gee, I thought we were talking about CP/M here. How many CP/M systems
used cassette for storage. Better yet, how many commerical/industrial
CP/M systems used cassettes for program storage.
I've seen plenty of CNC systems that used cassettes as a paper tape
replacement, but none were running CP/M. --Chuck
