Ah, the plans we had for the Mailstation. Weren't we going to make a
cool, portable, battery operated CP/M box? IIRC we couldn't get ram
mapped into the required address range. I do remember getting Cyrano's
debugger running on my hardware. I looked on ebay and it appears that
Mailstations go for about $ zero these days. I am retiring on Monday
and going on a massive downsizing jag. Looks like the Mailstations are
going in the recycling pile and not in the ebay store. Oh well.
