I have a machine with the CS80 boot ROMs but have been unable to dup them.
One of the problems that we've had is finding a burner to dup the ROMs. Bob
Shannon had tried a number of times but still can't get his copies to work.
So... This weekend I wnet to the Melbourne Hamfest and stumbled across an
old programmer that is supposed to burn Harris 7611's. Now If I can just get
Bob to send some of those chips back to me, maybe I can make dups.
See ya,
SteveRob
