The PC version was really bad and sloer thant he z80 version.

The only weakness that UCSD really suffered is it was P-system,
It was a interpreter running pseudo code than that made it slow
(like java). Compared to NS* DOS it was far more complete and
advanced. It was plenty adaquate as a teaching platform for Pascal.
