COMMENTS With the success of the O-1, Adam Osborne turned to improving his product. He wanted a larger screen and a power supply that wasn't quite so anemic. The result was the Executive. It had a 7" monitor with 80 columns of text, and 2 5.25" floppies with SSDD. The operating system was upgraded to CP/M+ which allowed an upgrade of the memory to 128K. It also had a standard video output port and the same solid case. Added were a fan to help keep the insides cooler. The particular unit I have is fully functional and has a 1Mb memory upgrade allowing for up to 16 virtual machines or a HUGE (for CP/M) RAM disk. |
