EV>TW>As I said my attraction was the CPM Software aviliable becasue of it's   
   EV>TW>compatability with the Onsorne/Kaypro suitcase computers. There was an   
   EV>TW>Income tax program that I used for several years before going to hte XT   
   EV>TW>clone. Plus Genealogy program was another CPM program that I liked.   
   EV>TW>I did use the 128 side of the computer and there was a nice selection   
   EV>TW>there alos. NONE of which were 64 compatable becaue they needed a 80   
   EV>TW>character screen as I recall.   
      
      
   EV>I never had anything that used CPM, I just remember CPM was a Common   
   EV>Language that worked on many early computer boxes IIRC.   
      
   In theory YES. But each manfacturer tweeked their CPU so their pograms   
   did not work on onter CPM machiens.   
      
   The Osborne/Kaypro/Commodore CPM was the first semi widely used version.   
      
   I rembember at the VA Medical Center when they first started using   
   computers for wiodprocessing each depatement picked a different make and   
   the non compatability was somewhat of a probelem.   
   Then when they started using the XT machiens it was quite a bit better   
   Except thaere waqs no facility wide wordprocessor and compatability   
   again became a probelm.
