________________________________ ... has given me an itch to do some bare-metal work on a classic, maybe a standalone Forth or something. Trouble is, I now have no "simple" classics. I don't fancy starting off doing this on an Amiga ;-) Has anyone in the UK (preferably the North, to make collection easier) got a smallish CP/M machine, or a BA23-cased PDP11? Drop me an email offlist and let me know what you want for it. I miss having a PDP11 about the place... Gordon -----REPLY----- Hi! You could build your own N8VEM system. CP/M is easy to get running. Better yet, get one of the new N8VEM 6809 host processor PCBs and port FLEX or CUBIX. Certainly that would provide untold hours of joyful hacking. Thanks and have a nice day! Andrew Lynch
