<u have a GRiD Compass with bubble memory, you get an OS
<that acts like it's in ROM, but bubbles are writable.

Lessee here.

My supercrate s100 has CPM/BIOS/Monitor in rom. takes about 3sec to
selfcheck and boot.

I have an s100 crate with a 2mb write once romdisk of my design.

I also have a z80 system with an two intel BPK72 bubble memories on.
Each one give 128kb of space.

All easily predate the GRID.
