I don't happen to have a P112 but versions for other hardware has me interested. I have S100 (Compupro, North*star, AmproLB+, SB180, BCC180, kaypros, and more than a few others. Maybe I should crank a system using real late version Z280s . RSX (RT-11 and others) on PDP-11 is why I have a bunch of Qbus 11s as they are fairly small and friendly. Allison

There is a "contact" link on this page: http://p112.sourceforge.net/index.php?rsx180 Maybe it works.

The PDP-11 always was my favorite machine, and the Z280 has many PDP-ish features, including a similar MMU, so for me is an interesting hobby project.

If anyone knows where the source might be or stumbles on it, I would definitely be interested as well. I have two P112's. :-) http://p112.sourceforge.net/index.php?downloads has two links to download binaries at the bottom for RSX-180 What about the source? Binaries are fun, but the source would be a lot more fun. bill

P112 runs RSX-11
I don't know who did it, but here's a video of a P112 running RSX: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5s6IOCCk3Uw If the creator of this thing is reading, I'd very much like to get my hands on RSX-180 and put it up on the P112 page at Sourceforge, Gitlab, et al. -- David Griffith d...@661.org A: Because it fouls the order in which people normally read text. Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing? A: Top-posting. Q: What is the most annoying thing in e-mail?
