Systems 8200 - not released

  • This is a 16 bit front end processor for the Systems 86 machine

  • The project hardware was completed however the software was never finished.  

  • This project was cancelled in favor of the 7200 machine acquired from Multidata.  

  • After the cancellation, George Dragner wrote an emulator in three days which allowed the 7200 code to be run on the 8200. The effective speed of the 7200 emulator matched the performance of the actual Multidata 7200 machine.
