In an article published in the May issue of "PROFILES" magazine (page 15), the status of the Ultraboard from High Tech Research was discussed. The article stated that Ultraboard would give CP/M a rebirth. Capsule form of the article follows: >Ultraboard is based on the Zilog Z280 chip >Ultraboard should be able to address up to 16 megabytes of memory with our > systems >High Tech Research had a cash flow problem and had to put the project on hold >HTR states that "Ultraboard isn't dead; CP/M isn't dead. We'll re-evaluate the project and if there is still a demand for it, we'll bring it out." >SLR Systems has expressed an interest in writing an alternative operating system to allow users to take advantage of multi-tasking and multi-user capabilities of the Z280. If someone on the network has the address for High Tech Research, we should flood them with inquiries about Ultraboard. That way, we network members could have some say in the future of CP/M How about it? Paul Pullen pvpullen@crdec-vax2.arpa
