*** Apple II+ and CP/M ***
Help! I've got a Basis 108 super Apple II+ compatible dual
6502/Z80 for sale. It's one of those machines that is now of
little use to me but perhaps to an Apple or CP/M person it
might be of great value. Just the pair of Shugart 850s in
Morrow Designs cases w/ power supplies are worth a small
chunk of change.
o 128kb memory
o Prometheus Applesurance diagnostic disk controller with
Basis-specific diagnostic ROM.
o Extra Prometheus Applesurance controller w/ Apple ROM
(controller has some problem but ROM is good)
o Dual Panasonic JA551 (Shugart SA455 OEM) 1/2-height
5-1/4"
40-track drives (read & write regular Apple 35-track
normally) with Shugart technical OEM & service
documentation
o Dual 8" DS/DD Shugart SA850 floppy drives (1Mb each) in
Morrow Designs cases with Vista A800 8" drive controller
and drivers and utilities for P-System, Apple DOS 3.3,
and CP/M, and including Shugart technical OEM and service
manuals
o Extra Vista A500 5-1/4" disk controller
o PCPI Applicard 6MHz Z80 coprocessor (note: the Basis also
has its own built-in Z80 which is independent of the
Applicard, and runs included Microsoft SoftCard CP/M)
o Videx UltraTerm video card (160x48, etc. - great w/
Wordstar 3.3 included) (note: the Basis also has its own
built-in video)
o USI Pi-3 1000-line hires amber monitor (the best in its
day)
o Extra Apple Monitor III composite green screen
o Built-in RGB and composite video output
o ThunderClock with X-10 interface and software
o Serial and parallel ports
o A2D joystick
o CP/M 2.2 w/ ZCPR
o CP/M 3.0 w/ DRI manuals
o UCSD P-System
o Apple DOS 3.3
o ProDOS
o Switchable dual bootable Apple/Basis ROMs
o Excellent detached keyboard with a separate numeric
keypad and programmable function keys.
o A huge amount of programming languages with manuals
including UCSD Pascal and Fortran, MBasic for CP/M, Aztec
C for Dos 3.3, CBasic for CP/M, 6502 and Z80/8080
assembler, Mix C and editor for CP/M, Turbo Pascal 2.0,
Fortran-80 for CP/M, Applesoft Basic, and more
o Utilities, games, mucho communications & application
software (too much to list) for all three operating
systems
o Many technical books, including original Apple manuals,
and lots of documentation on everything related to the
system.
o Lots of 5-1/4" and 8" diskettes including DS/DD 8" (1024
kb).
o Almost all issues of the First Basis Users Group
newsletter.
This machine is built like a tank and was the best of the
best in its time which now seems to be slightly behind us.
I rarely use it anymore but it is still a valuable machine in
the right hands. This is a giant pile of excellent stuff.
Everything is in good working order and all goes together.
Asking $300 plus shipping or make offer.
