Here's a winter project, can anyone think of a reason why you CAN'T wire up
an adapter that would allow you to connect the pods to an IBM compatible
computer and run them directly using a Z80 emulator? Seems to me that one's
speed might go up a bit, plus no need to fix the tape drive...the old AT
bus to the rescue? Or the newer bus...?
Anyone game to look into this further? I can see a few items that need a
bit of massaging, there is the PROBE circuitry after all, and the signature
part of the probe, but the rest of the base is a fairly straight forward
Z80A computer...and the 80XXX's are descendants...
