Oh man! I feel dated now...I had a Cromemco Z2(S100 running CP/M 2.21) back
then, and later a Ferguson Big Board and the requisite Apple ][ Plus with a
Microsoft Z80 Softcard.
A real close friend of mine had beaten me to the punch though, an Imsai
8080, which he still has and boots up once a year in the winter to heat up
his basement fast.:-)

Which S100 beastie does/did he have?

Thanks,

Ron S.
