Hello, I am posting ths for a friend who has a Toshiba Model T100 (Z80?) with 64K RAM running CP/M (1.7?). He has two 5.25" floppy drives. I am an Unix/MS-DOS user (please, no pies in the face ;-) ), so I don't know too much about it. He thinks that it is supposed to be similar to Kaypro's of the smae time period. What we need to know is: 1) Who out there has and/or is still using this machine (or similar) ? 2) Where in the U.S. can you buy (mailorder) PD or Commercial CP/M software for this type of machine? 3) Can someone tell which of the sub-level directories of the SIMTEL20 CP/M archive would apply to this machine? Again, we really don't know much more about it, so please excuse our ignorance. We are hoping to find some good software out there to maintain the machine's usefulness. Please email responses to me and I will relay them to him. He currently does not have net access. Thank you so much in advance! Mark. -- Mark J. Bailey "Ya'll com bak naw, ya hear!"

I just gave one of those away. They're still supported to a very limited extent by Toshiba's Printer Division. I have a T-200, which has an 8085. The T-100 had a Z-80, as you said, but the serial port was a software emulation of an 8251. Any generic CP/M software should work, but I never had much success with the IOBYTE stuff, and I couldn't find a customized CP/M Kermit for either the T-100 or T-200.
