Anyone interested in Datapoint should get this book:
Datapoint
The Lost Story of the Texans Who Invented the Personal Computer Revolution
ISBN 978-1-936449-36-1
Quite a story, I could not put it down.

I picked up Eric's DP 1500 Z80 system at VCF West
this weekend, unfortunately
the boot disk has bad sectors. Anyone have any diskettes/images around for the
1500 or any other version of their systems?
I took pics and dumped the firmware from it along with a DP 1551 pcb I've had
for a while, and have been uploading the manuals to bitsavers that came with it,
as well as a bunch that I've had scanned in the backlog
I have Catweasel images of the 2 floppies that came with my 1550 Floppy drive (
alas I do not have the 1550 itself ...)
ftp://ftp.dreesen.ch/Datapoint/FloppyImage
( these are multiple catweasel scans of the same 2 floppies )
No idea what these actually contain.....
Still hoping to find documentation and floppy images on the DP2200 / DP1100 floppy drive
electronics.
