Default NASCOM Nostalgia Surprise!

I've just had a nice surprise!

I have recently purchased a TL866 Programmer which has been successfully coupled to my Macintosh computer running Windows XPsp3 under VirtualBox. The purpose is to help verify the EPROMs used in vintage synthesiser keyboards (think MOOG).

While setting up the programmer I grabbed a random handful of EPROMs that have been sitting in a drawer for many years. Upon testing a Mitsubishi 2732, I find that it contains the code for the venerable ZEAP 2.0 - those of you who cut their teeth on a NASCOM will recognise that as the Z80 Editor & Assembler package supplied for use on the 80-BUS computers.

Of course, I'm now likely to get completely side-tracked and fire up the old NASCOM to revisit my past life…
