- I have two old Digital Equipment DECmate II WPS-8 word processing systems v1.5.0
- that I wish to either make use of or get rid of. One of the machines has a
- CP/M 2.2 board in it.
-
- I know very little about these machines and was wondering if anybody can
- fill me in on the most recent of this now discontinued system and software.
-
- Can I obtain Unix or another useful OS for them? Is there any useful
- software around, such as print servers, mail handlers etc.. that I could
- utilise?
-
- What can I do with them other than turn them into sea anchors?
-
- Please email
-
- Thanks,
-
