While I like the Kaypros, I prefer my TRS-80 Model 4 as a CP/M
system. Back in the day, I ran Montezuma Micro CP/M 2.2 on this
system and with its second bank of 64KB available as a RAMdisk, it
was quite snappy. MM also had the capability of defining virtual
drives as other CP/M formats, so you could have, for example, a D:
drive set up as a Kaypro or Osborne format.
The only issue I have with the Model 4 (I've got one as well) is the
lack of { and } keys. Makes it damn difficult to write C code. :) I think
Kaypros are among the best CP/M machines ever built.
I like the Kaypros fine, but I like the Commodore 128 better for CP/M. It
may be slow, but it's a nice implementation.
