PournelleDRI Concurrent exists for PC, and is pretty damned good. I think probably wave of the future. About Octogon I know nothing. Gifford MP/M is said to work; Jim Hudson is using it. I am using CP/M 8/16 because it is faster and I have Tony Pietsch's new TMX Bios for it. 8/16 with Compupro hard disk is just plain GREAT, if you're willing to put up with some of CP/M's quirks. Alas, some of these are quirks I am not used to because Tony used to trap them in the BIOS and you can't do that in 8/16. However, Compupro has bouth the source to CP/M and is contemplating doing a few nice things to the Command Processor to make it a little friendlier; but that's a Real Soon Now project, and I have no clues as to when it will be available, or even that they won't shelve it for another project; I expect to have Concurrent running on my big system Real Soon Now. It runs on the IBM PC fine.
