This morning Tim Olmstead lost his battle with cancer. He leaves
family and friends.
Tim was one of the driving forces in preserving CP/M.
Go with God Tim.

I'm very grateful to Tim for the joy that his CP/M-collections have given me
over the last few years.
Freek.

This it? Anyone?
That looks right. I once sent him some manuals and that address
rings bells.

That is correct.

Indeed, he did.
One of my projects I hope to complete someday is one he started and
we'd brought as far as completed PWB about to be tested {first bring
up}. It was to be a Z280/12mhz with 10mhz Z8000{segmented part} with
16mb shared ram using ISA-16 bus for standard PCbased cards. The
Z8000 was to run as a fully cooperative shared processor. One of
the peices under development was a compatable mod to CP/M-2.2 such
that it would support large IDE disks(like Novados) and heirarchial
directories. I plan to complete this software though it will not be
as pretty hardware. We shared the complmenting skills both hardware
and software to build it.
