Hi Merle -
I couldn't help but respond to a posting that I saw. I'm amazed that these
computers are still around. This just brings up all kinds of memories. I was one of the
original development engineers at Basic Four from 1973 through 1978. I wrote all the
firmware for the 1300 CPU which was an enhanced emulation of the 1200 that we bought from
(I think) Microdata, in addition to almost every peripheral diagnostic, most of the
drivers and a big hunk of BB2. So, if the computer museum ever needs a little background
on the company or products of Basic Four, give me a yell.
