The CP/M Talk Went Well

 I gave the talk at BoatFest 2025.  The crew there did a Twitch Live Stream of it.  Here is the VOD stream.  In the process of preparing for the talk, 

I put together a GitHub repository that has all my notes, resources, references, slides, and the actual paper that went into the talk.

I also had a table at the show.  I had six display stations set up:

  1. A PiDP-11 with a monitor so the visitors can interact with the system
  2. PiDP-8 with a monitor so the visitors can interact with the system
  3. An Altair-Duino which is an Altar-8800 emulator with a keyboard and monitor.
  4. The SC-131 attached to a laptop putty session to demo all the hello world test programs
  5. A Linux laptop running all the CP/M Emulators in separate windows so the visitors could compare the operation of each emulator.
  6. An old IBM ThinkPad R31 running Windows XP, just because I thought it was cool.  This laptop is the reason I am in West Virginia in the first place.
I also had a collection of vintage books I used as reference.
