Got a RC2014 system kit a while back but had problems getting it to work. The EPROM that came with the kit was programmed by the seller but for some reason, either; he sent the wrong chip or the chip he sent wasn't set up for the combination of boards I picked. At any rate ordered some new UV EPROM's and programmed with the correct monitor program and voila have a system running CP/M 2.2. So have been playing withe Z80 assembler, wow does that bring back memories. The system uses a CF card as the disk system and somewhere along the line Turbo Pascal 3.0 appeared on it? Haven't programmed in Pascal since early college days, circa 79. Surprisingly it's coming back pretty quick and am able to program some elementary stuff right off. The hardest part is navigating in the editor, you get so used to using arrow keys to move around that I am constantly hitting the arrow keys instead of the control keys that do the actual navigation. Anyway fun stuff and looking forward to future adventures.
If you can't find time to do it right the first time, how are you going to find time to do it again? PartsBin an Electronics Part Organizer - Release Version 1.4.0 (Many new features) JaxCoder.com Latest Article: EventAggregator

Great stuff? Funny how technology we "struggled" with years ago provides amusement and relief today. I have a DOS virtual machine, anyone want to run edlin? Keep having fun, spice of life (after sex). :)

Don't take much to amuse an old fart like me. :) Like I tell my SO, it keeps me off the streets and out of trouble.

Last time I cleaned the office (well, the storehouse room I call an office) I found a copy of Turbo Pascal 5.5+ (Now with Objects!) lying around. If I find it again, would you like it?

Yes please, any old disks you find I would take. I'll pay postage and incidentals. Thanks

Next time I see it, I'll get in touch. If the "email me" link still works on my post - it's always been enabled - then drop me a line with your address.

No the PM link is no longer there. Haven't seen it in a while. I've had a couple of people get ahold of me through the contact page on my site because they were not able to PM me. Hmm, wonder what happened, maybe people were abusing it? Anyway leave me a msg on my site Contact - JaxCoder[^] and I'll get my address back to you. Thanks Roger.
