Announcing......... C a r d Z 1 8 0 A peripheral card and software package for Apple ][ series that will move your computer into the future of 8-bit computing. - - - - - - - - The CardZ180 System combines a high-speed 8-bit CPU co-processor card with the latest in 8-bit operating systems and utilities. The CardZ180 System was designed by experienced Apple CP/M users and has been extensively tested and refined over a 2 year period. Its features satisfy the needs of beginners while still going beyond the dreams of even the most advanced CP/M users. The architecture of the CardZ180 System follows that of the popular PCPI Applicard. Device drivers are resident in the Apple's 6502 memory area while up to 1 Megabyte of DRAM memory is available for CardZ180 System use. The Operating System (O/S) is the recently released ZDDOS/ZSDOS and NZCOM combination. This incredible OS allows "on-the-fly" O/S reconfiguration for command/memory optimization. As part of the popular "Z-System", it has often been called a mix of CP/M, MS-DOS and UNIX. Designed for the future, both the hardware and software of the CardZ180 System have provisions for easy expansion and enhancement. - - - - - - - - CardZ180 Features: Hardware: - 9.216 MHz 64180 CPU, runs with NO wait states - Up to 1 Megabyte of DRAM, using inexpensive 150 nSec 256K DRAMS - Easy user expansion to 2 serial ports - Expansion connectors for SCSI controller, math co-processor - Form factor fits in all Apple ][ series, including //gs Software: - includes complete Z-System Operating System (a $150+ value): ZCPR3.4 - Batch file handling.
