| It was 80, not 88 or 86.  Yes, I remember both CP/M-86 and MP/M-86;
| I ran them on my Amiga under the emulater.  I ran the CP/M-80 on
| my Timex Sinclair Z80, and the Z80 cartridge for my C-64 and Z80
| emulators in a lot of places (I still have Nevada COBOL and Nevada
| FORTRAN on floppy, as well as the Z80 Aztec C compiler).

This is hard to believe.  I remember making fun of my cousin with his Timex
Sinclair, because my C64 was so much cooler.  The very first program I
bought for it (on cassette, of course) was SuperMon64, a ML monitor.  I
never got the Z80 cartridge.

Then I moved on to an Amiga 1000, and promptly bought the Aztec Manx C
compiler.  I never did figure out how to read all of those man pages that
came with the Fred Fish disks.  :-)
