I have a full house of Nabu option cards installed
Floppy Drive controller card
Serial card
Hard Drive card

Are these all modern add on cards, or some vintage NABU too? I should get local storage for mine!

They are all reproductions of the vintage cards.
The serial card is an exact clone
The floppy card is exact except that it uses a standard 34 pin instead of the proprietary connector that was on the original
The hard drive card uses a Cf instead of the IDE

Neat. Wish there was an 80 column card too :) (Is there?)

Cp/m runs natively in 80 col if you install the Pico 9918 in place of the stock vdp. ( drop in replacement )

I may have to do that when I get some time!

can it boot locally? or only from the network?
Longjumping_Push2223@reddit (OP)
Yes. It boots from floppy or Cf and boots into CP/m
Longjumping_Push2223@reddit (OP)
in can boot locally from floppy or hard drive. It boots into Cp/m 2.2 or 3.1
I have almost all of the Cloud Cp/m files on the hard drive as well as a ton of Msx and Colecovision converted games
