I know awhile back folks were talking about a CP/M port for the Model T.
Earlier today I was watching some Youtube videos on CP/M, which reminded
me of OS/9, and that got me wondering.
OS9 is re-entrant and position independent, multi-user and multi-tasking.
The original OS9 was designed to operate in 64k of ram.
I understand that the 8085 doesn't have relative addressing? I think
that could be worked around, however. Maybe.
But I was wondering if maybe a custom subset of OS9 could be developed
for a rom image, taking over the Model T, and be designed to work with
the Rex, Rex 2 and Quad add-ons?
An OS that could "flatten" the memory banks of the Quad would be
fantastic, and working with the Rex 2's built-in storage would, imo,
make the Model T much more useful & powerful.
I don't know enough to know whether or not such a thing is feasible.
