I picked up a Convergent Technologies CP001/8 along with a tonne of extra bits this weekend. It is an absolutely fascinating machine, but I have no idea how to use it. /: Unfortunately, in all the extensive documentation I picked up (including numerous schematics) there is not one operator's or user's guide, although such are mentioned. The OS reference is, apparently, devoted to the mechanicals: system calls, and so on. Useful, but not at the fledgeling stage. (: If someone knows aught about this machine, I would sure love to hear what you've got to tell. I also picked up a TI 99/4A and an Apple ][plus, which I shall require some guidance with as well, as I cut my teeth on TRS-80 machines, and didn't really even get into computers until I had moved up to a 386sx.. Thanks. ok -r
