Hi all, this is my first post to the list.
I saw an old NEC computer in a storage shed that I was thinking of trying to
save. It has 'APC' on the front (Advanced Personal Computer?), two vertical
8"
floppies, and built in screen. Is it one of those 8-bit CP/M systems? If
anyone has any info on this system I would appreciate it. Thanks.

Hi, Andy:
The one I have uses an early version of DOS, but that is all the info I
have on it.

The original APC runs CP/M-86 and DOS 2.11. It's a very nice machine,
really and very interesting. It's very heavy, though and murderous to
move around. It came in both green screen and a colour version.

Andy,
I have a byte magazine that has a review of it. It looks like a nice
machine.
