Ummmm... you mean it never caught on *then*... Now we have Java, which is
similar to what the P-code concept is... P-code compliled under UCSD Pascal
on a Tandy Color Computer (MC6809) could run unmodified on a TI-99/4A
(TMS9900).
JAVM - Just Another Virtual Machine.
Hope this helps,

The P-Code card allows you to run "universal" software. It never
really caught on. I have the software, UCSD Pascal stuff mainly.
