Hi,
|
||||
|
||||
I’m collector of vintage computer systems. One of my systems is an ABC-24 for which I have destroyed the CP/M Boot Disk. So I want to ask you for a copy of this Disk (or an Image) if you have one.
|
||||

The ABC-24 and [ABC-26](/museum/ai-electronics-abc-26/) could run up to 8 programs simultaneously and could manage 7 work-stations under M/PM (according to the advertisement). they has a real-time clock and 96 graphic symbols built-in.
|
||||
|
||||
There were several models : [20](/museum/ai-electronics-abc-20/), 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 and [26](/museum/ai-electronics-abc-26/), mostly differentiated by their storage capacities...\
|
||||
The 2x Models were the successors of the ABC 10, which had a digital tape auxillary memory, supplied with DOSKET-T.
|
||||
|
||||
AI DOSKET is the AI Electronics Operating System. A lot of languages were developed for these computers: MBasic, CBasic, Basic, Pascal, Cobol80, PL/3, Fortran IV and assembler.
