Greetings!

A co-worker has an old Morrow Decision (Design?) CPM-80 machine
that died recently--bad crt or something.  She doesn't want to
spend any money having it repaired (is it even possible?) but
she does want to retrieve the data from her flops.  She has 
been offered a good deal on an XT-clone.

Is there some kind of MS-DOS program available that will let
her read her old cpm floppies on an XT?  (Have I just insulted
everyone in this newsgroup?)  I saw some mention of running
a CPM environment on a DOS machine.  Is that the sort of thing
she should be interested in?

Also, I have an old Sanyo MBC-2000; stats are: CPM 2.2, 
64k, dual 5.25" floppy drives, 2 serial ports, 1 centronics
port.  Software includes Typemaster, CalcStar, BASIC, a 
communication program, Adventure and other odds and ends.
I need to unload this soon, my wife wants it outta her way.
Is this worth more than $1/pound to anyone?

Thanks!
