I seem to
recall that there were commercially available 2650 S100 cards....
Do you have more
information ?

I recall this as well. The source of more information
would
undoubtedly be to page through a big stack of _BYTE_'s from the mid
and late 70's.
Remember, in the S-100 world "commercially
available" means that someone
etched a PC board and maybe, if you're lucky, they actually typed
up a manual with hand-drawn schematics.
Thats still graet :)
I guess for a working 2650 System one could wrench
a lot of bucks out of my purse :)

Speaking of which, I have just found the manual for the commercial 2650
board.
It's the SBC 2650 (I'm guessing SBC is "Single Board Computer" - I
won't
even bother looking it up to confirm!). Includes functional description,
circuit diagram, assembly instructions, fault finding software, etc etc.
Wahoo!!
Money is a great motivator ;)
Cheers

Regarding my S100 2650 machine (you can see this at
http://www.comcen.com.au/~adavie/weird/s100.html ), not only have I found
the manual for the processor board, I found the manual for the floppy disk
subsystem. The first line made me smile, I thought I'd share it with the
group...
"There are now at least 7 people successfully running floppy discs with
their 2650 system"
Those days are gone, gone. Too bad.

Further documentation on my 2650 system;
Have in hand a full listing of the 2650-based 8080 emulator, used on this
machine. This emulator was used to run CP/M on the machine..
So, does anybody else have a 2650 based computer?

No, but I've got a 2650 simulator in C. Maybe I can compile that to run
on my 8080, and run the 8080 simulator on it, and boot CP/M *really* slowly.

Neat, maybe use the C64 C compiler ? And run on a C64 ?
Or more serious on a Apple IIgs ? 4 MHz 65816 running
a C written 2650 running an assembly written 8080 might
result in less than 100 kHz effective :)
