If I invested in a CP/M card (low cost) would I be able to run programs written on an IBM using MeSsy DOS? If not I may buy a PC Transporter (High Cost) . Whats out there nowadays for CP/M anyhow? I remeber it was big thin in the late 70s early 80s but how about now? One other thing....whats up with the Duet, the supposed Mac Emulation Card from Cir-Tech? Vaporware? Hardware? Tableware? Underware? - Joe Nowakowski

How about BDS C v1.6, Mix C, Booz (unzoo), ZNode BBS Software, and... get THIS... UUCP! I've been running UUCP on my home Apple II for some time now. Ask me! The UUCP that I have for CP/M is very slick - it includes file transfers from one system to the other (the program uucp), as well as news and mail... you could even write a gateway if you wanted to! -- !
