I have the opportunity to pick up a VG 3005 S100 system with a 5 MB disk and 128K for $800. On the surface, this sounds like a great deal, but I need to know about the details of the system, such as: o Are versions of ZCPR2 and MODEM7 available for it. o Is it compatible with CP/M stuff in general. o What kind of terminal does it pretend to be? Are there emulation programs for it. o It claims to run Extended CP/M 2.2, I suppose to take advantage of the banked memory. Any screws with this? o How reliable is it. o We don't get serial boards with it, and maybe no BIOS. How easy is it to find a copy of the BIOS. James Reply to me directly: JMTURN@MIT-MC
