It seems like I spend more time searching for things than actually playing. I
guess that's the
nature of this obsession. So anyways, I'm trying to bring up a couple of
Tarbell 1011D single
density 8" floppy controllers and having a compatible CP/M boot disk would go a
long ways
toward bringing me joy. Does anyone out there have a working Tarbell setup that
could copy
some disks for me? I would be more than happy to supply blank disks, postage,
etc.

I don't know why my message of a few minutes ago had garbage characters embedded in it. Let me try it again... I think you're right about Lifeboat CP/M 2.2...
One of the members of this list (Steve?) sent me a copy of CP/M that was labeled "Burcom 56K CP/M 2.2" that was for the Altair and worked with the hard...
I don't think it was from me, Craig. I didn't use hard-sector CP/M very much. The two programs that I used that weren't available for MITS BASIC were Wordstar...
All, Is there a list member out there that, back in the day, that used CP/M, Altair specific or on another Altair / IEEE-696 buss based platform? I was...
... I run CP/M 2.2 on my IMSAI and did so back in the day. The ZORK text-based adventure games were popular. Also before MS Word there was Wordstar, which...
I actually did find a set of binaries for Tarbell CP/M 1.4 on that site. The problem is that it is just the individual application and BIOS components and not...
Mardy, Did you get my email? I can get you a boot disk for a Tarbell 1011D Floppy Controller connected to your favorite SS, SD, 8" drive (mine are FD 400's...
... I first used CP/M on a Cromemco Z2 as a grad student, using MS FORTRAN (not a very good product compared to DEC FORTRAN that we were using on our "real"...
I sold systems that used Altair 8800 B T's configured with Tarbell Z80 cards at 6 MHZ, 256 K memory (Bank selected) and MP/M II. Most popular application was...
... Z80 ... popular ... Any chance you might still have a Tarbell Z80 card available? Don was one of the best - and he checked out way too early. I've still...
Hi Jack, No Tarbell hardware in my possession beyond my 1011D FDC. I do have (and am running) CP/M 2.2 with a deblocking BIOS that works with 128 or 512 byte...
