Lansing Lines: 16 Just wanted to add my endorsement of ZPC. It really works well. I'm running mine without the Scottie mods, but in 768K. Most things except programs that talk to the ports (communications packages, etc) work pretty well. As a long time z100 user, I've used Watchword as my editor. When it became available for the PC, I had my boss buy it for my PC. It is not as nice as the 100 version, but still a great editor. Anyway, I thought I'd try the PC version on the 100 under ZPC and it works just fine (although why one would use it is another question). ZPC has helped me milk a few more years out of the old 100 till I can save enough $$ for a 386 box. Well worth the very cheap asking price.
