Hi,
I was going through some boxs of disk tonight and found a bunch of hard
sectored 32 sector 8" disks. Anyone have any idea what uses these? One of
them is a Tektronix disk and it says 8002 Tekdos (Z-80) the others all say
"ZAM" source code, edits, etc.

Well... I suspect some of the early Tektronix development and perhaps Unix
based systems, but the MITS Floppy Disk sub-system for the Altair computers
used them.
