Hi,
<snip>
Of course, I could get side-tracked and just use my expanded AIM65 system -
as it has all the monitor/debug software, enough IO ports and the built in
display...... ;)

As a matter of fact, the AIM is perfect for programming 2716 & 25/2732 EPROMs;
the 24V printer supply is OK for Vpp (and the printer also comes in useful) and
of course there's RS-232 for up/down-loading. With an adapter you could even do
larger EPROMS 32K at a time.
The first thing I did with my first AIM was to homebrew some battery-backed
RAM (no Dallas NVRAMs in those days) and an EPROM programmer:
an 8212, a ZIF socket and a switch to turn Vpp on/off is all I used, and it
plugs nicely onto the expansion connector. I still use the AIM for reading
and/or editing ROM images, although better programmers have taken over that
function.
Later Rockwell also published schematic and software for an EPROM burner add-on,
but it had a few more parts than my minimalist version.
