[Coco] Another CUBIX 6809 Multicomp Microcomputer is Online!

[Kip Koon]

Hi Guys!

I am very proud to announce that I now have CUBIX running on my 6809
Multicomp Microcomputer.  I will be running my CUBIX OS Multicomp
Microcomputer in my booth along with my MP/M Multicomp Microcomputer at this
year's CoCoFEST 2015 at Heron Point Inn in Lombard, IL.  I'm very glad to be
adding this platform to my arsenal of 8-Bit SBCs.  I'm told that there is no
support for CUBIX from the author at this time.  A fellow N8VEM member tried
to get in touch with him concerning the C Compiler not being functional if I
remember correctly.  It's a shame too because having a C compiler on hand
would make it possible to port the many existing C programs over to CUBIX.
This version of Cubix is only $1B00 bytes or 6KB in size which means there
is 58KB of free ram to work with.  There is no bank switching so far in
CUBIX that I know of.  CUBIX can access 4 partitions of 4MB a piece using
the SD Card as the storage device.  As far as I know CUBIX is a single user
system even though adding the second serial into the VHDL code is easy.
Maybe it can be used as a printer port.  Who knows what else could be done.
I'll see you at the CoCoFEST!  Take care my friends.
