Hi,
Thanks for the reply - I was able to get the LED-TEST program entered on the
monitor & it runs fine!!!!
I see that I have the H8-5 in there. Is a terminal on this machine any good
without a floppy drive?
There also is a control card in the last slot - it says "CONTROLLER BOARD"
on it - is this the floppy controller?
Thanks so far!
Chris

I have two H8's, they are extremely fun machines.
Go to google.com and
search, there is a ton of info on the web about these wonderful systems.
You should start looking for a floppy drive and a crt right away :)

with this
machine a bit but really I don't know where to start.
I believe all I have for the H-8 is the computer - the part with the
keypad
& led display & a bunch of cables.
What can I do with this? How can I test to see if it even works? Any
ideas
where I could go to find more information about
it?
Thanks all!
