I recently requested comments on HD64180 or Z280 boards to replace a Z-80 CPU board in an S-100 system. I got a few responses but there seems to be only one candidate, a Z280 S-100 bus single board computer from a company called Computer Design Solutions in Statesville, NC. Their product sounds good - has all the features I want at a reasonable price - but I don't know anything about the company itself. I don't want to put down good money for vaporware from a firm that might go out of business any day. Has anyone had any experience with Computer Design Solutions or know anything about there reliability ? thanks in advance, Bob Haar CSNET: HAAR@GMR.COM FYI: CDS SBC-280 board is $550 with 512Kb RAM, 3 serial ports, 1 parallel port, floppy controller, SCSI interface, and ROM monitor.
