You say "Z88: no flash (memory) support".
I corrected this to "Z88: No flash (memory) support at launch".
How do you define "memory"? Rakewell have had a flash card
for a very long time - I have built over 300 for them over
the years. They even have a spec to add a flash rom O/S chip
which can be changed in situ by the Z88.
Is Rakewell still trading? Are such cards still available?
Indeed they are, and there is a steady trickle.
He (Vic Gerhardi) has another interesting product coming, and I have
built the first few production samples.
The original flash card was the inspiration for Romdisq. I showed
Stuart the Z88 card at Eindhoven, and by the time we got back to the UK
we had laid down the spec for Romdisq.
