This is one of countless reasons that I regard the ADAM as not much more
<than a cruel joke ;) CP/M on a cassette based system? And one which
<uses a non-standard cassette format (off-the-shelf tapes won't work)...
<How many CP/M apps were produced in "Digital Data Pack" format? Any?
It was an attempt to produce a system that was low cost but still have a
block device (disk usually). The tapes were digital casette and was a
standard format for the time.
It was however an interesting machine. I'd love to find one and/or the
prints for it. I'm interested in how they did the tape system.
