 I have a ZFA-161 which is a luggable box. Mine has a nice little
monitor program in ROM and I imagine yours does as well. Try
Ctrl-Alt-Ins.
 It should work with an early Dos version but possibly has some
additional config. because it's a laptop. ISTR there was someone
else on the list with one. You might check the archives.
 While there is considerable info and programs for the Z-100
systems there's not much on the PC clones.

ciao larry


too much
