Long shot, but does anyone know of any available

images for any of the Microdata machines (800/1600) or the relatives
(Intertechnique Multi-8/Multi-4, MAI Basic Four BB-II)?
There?s a bit of documentation available - Bitsavers has a bit, and I have
some MAI documentation that I?m in the process of scanning. I?m toying
with the idea of emulating this machine, but I?m having difficulty locating
any software for it.
Thanks in advance.

I'm in the same boat though my interest is in the M1600 implementation of
Reality. At one point I started a SIMH implementation of the 1600 CPU but
didn't get very far before the idea of trying a FPGA/Verilog solution took
over. That has gotten a bit further but is not progressing very fast.
If you want to swap notes and ideas or even collaborate on an emulation
then I'd be happy to help (& be helped :)
