Episode description

64 bits? Why, back in my day, we had to push our 8 bit computers uphill, 5 miles, in the snow...

Welcome to show #008! The star of today's show is the CP/M Operating System.

Topics and links discussed in the podcast...

E-mails came in from Thurstan, Alan, JagMod, Mike, Chuck and Ryan! Excellent, and fun reading! Thanks, the e-mails make my day.

Wikipedia has a great entry on CP/M, including technical info and some links. I am starting to use Wikipedia a lot.
The "Unofficial" CP/M Web Site has lots of technical information, source code and resources for the CP/M operating system.
Gaby’s Homepage for CP/M and Computer History has a wide variety of info on CP/M, and lots of excellent links!
The Computer Chronicles special on Gary Kildall is a must-see.

Be sure to send us any comments, questions or feedback to retrobits@gmail.com

Our Theme Song is "Sweet" from the "Re-Think" album by Galigan

Thanks for listening!
