<years old machines now. Rainbow machine is very quirky demanding
<weird hardware and quirky disks in both format and hardsectored. :(

Huh? Rainbot uses the somewhat unique format for the hard disk but sos did
many other of the time. The floppy is a soft sector single sided 96tpi
at 10 sectors per track that can be formatted on a PC with a good 1.2m
drive in 360k speed and with the correct formatter. OR a system with an
RX50 drive and a 1793 floppy controller (CP/M-80 boxen).

<> acceptable OS. Although CP/M running native on a Pentium 133 is pretty
<> cool, and fast! By collecting Non-PC's there a tons of OS's to play with

CP/M-80 running on a 16mhz z180 is far more interesting. ;-)
