Silicium vous a présenté hier le terminal ADDS Regent, voici la machine qu’il faut pour l’exploiter. L'IMS 8000 est un beau parallélépipède avec deux lecteurs 8" de 1,6 Mo. Pas pour jouer... pour travailler sérieusement. Enfin... jusqu'à ce qu'un développeur lance une compilation COBOL juste avant le café. ☕💾 As-tu pratiqué le CP/M ?

Happy 50th birthday to the Zilog #Z80 CPU, which swiftly became preferred to 8080, got put into #s-100 hobbyist computers, was the core for a few generations of #TRS80 personal computers, CP/M boxes (is #CPM how we tag that?) and so many others. https://www.tomshardware.com/tech-industry/zilog-z80-turns-50-as-open-source-replacement-heads-for-drop-in-dip40-silicon Also, a pox on autocorrect for wanting Zilog to be zoloft. Ew.

Replying to @tomshardware@mastodon.online
@tomshardware@mastodon.online From my experience in the 1990's, the 8 bit #Z80 microprocessor was the heart of most of the PLC's that ran production lines. With zero failures. No stress, workers got their paychecks.

Folks here looking for new DIP CPUs know about the NEC V20, right? Pin compatible with 8088, but runs Z80 code. Dunno if it will do that from-the-socket. RTFM datasheet. No idea who makes these though the new 8088 laptops sold on AliExpress all use them, so probably still made... #retrocomputing #i8088 #z80

Having just found out from @diyelectromusic@mastodon.social and @rc2014@oldbytes.space about the #Z80 at 50 event at the Centre for Computing History in #Cambridge on the weekend of the 18th/19th July... If you weren't able to get a ticket for #EMFCamp, which is the same weekend, this might be an interesting alternative? https://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/77032/Z80-at-50-Saturday-18th-Sunday-19th-July-2026/ #retrogaming #retrocomputing Edit: remove bonus "X" as it is a celebration of the Z80 CPU not just the ZX80

Currently designing a Z180-based computer. What a nice chip, lots of peripherals and clock doubling on the newer versions (also can be overclocked nicely with no issues). Z80 forever! #z80

https://linktr.ee/quazarsamcoupe A quick post to my new LinkTree for links to everything #retrocomputing I do - my main website for all my SAM Coupe development, the two smaller sites for ZX Spectrum hardware and peripherals for RC2014 & compatibles. My other social media accounts and my Tindie and eBay stores. #samcoupe #zxspectrum #rc2014 #retrogaming #demoscene #indiedev #gamedev #z80
