PL/M was my favorite language. In those days I was designing and
programming control and data acquisition systems for automotive R&D.
How do you have Intel compilers and assemblers running on the Imsai?
You must have ISIS-II running on it. How much work was that to do?

I wish! Although it isn't a bad idea, if one could find the source to
ISIS. I am running the ISIS simulator in a DOS box in WIndows XP which is
running in Parallels on my Mac Pro quad procesor. I use ZTERM on the Mac as
a dumb terminal and load programs using the 'send text' command. I wrote a
hex loader into the SCS monitor which I have in EPROM in the IMSAI so I
just send the hex output from OBJHEX to the loader through zterm. I am now
working on the floppy primitives and perhaps eventually will try to get CPM
running. ISIS would be more fun, any idea where the source is?
I did a consulting gig with an automotive diagnostic company in Kalamazoo,
MI back in 1979 when I was working at National Semtconductor. Great fun,
although I had NO idea what I was doing, being less than a year out of UC
Berkeley. Those were heady days!
