According to the Zenith Z100 user's manual, the Z100 can run all CP/M-80 software on the Z100's 8085 processor. I suppose this is because the 8085, 8080, and Z80 use compatible machine instruction sets. You do have to get the software into the Z100, though. If it is 5.25" floppy, soft sectored, it should run OK, except that the OS on the disk is not bootable, you have to use CP/M-85 from another disk. If it is on another medium, you may need another machine, such as the Heath/Zenith Z89 or Z90, to read it in.
