Ned, my experiences with the Adam thus far are quite different than yours,
though that may be because I have a different orientation. I purchased
this machine specifically to get a cheap CP/M machine running (and hopefully
to make a few dollars selling some software) and of course must cool my
heels until I can get that capability. I also need a second telecommunications
machine so my wife can play around on Compuserve while I do the more
"important(?)" stuff.
My machine has performed flawlessly, though I must say I have not left it
running more than about two hours at a time in the week I've had it. I
have fiddled with the word processor but have not yet typed any real
documents on it; I have several pages to do this weekend though. As for
BASIC, I have negligible interest in it. It does boot up, but I have no
plans to do much with it.
I am sorry that you are having troules and hope that it is a fluke. That
makes a even tie of one thumbs up and one thumbs down (the apparent total
population of Adams on the net at this time.)
