I was doing 8085 design and firmware in the early 80's. Our Intel ICE was the size of a kitchen stove and I seem to recall the 8 inch floppy was 40kb, but that might have been each side. Does anyone recall? We upgraded to the 360 kb 8 inch around the time your APC came out. Great fun!
The diskettes are not high-density (HD), they're double density. They store around a megabyte, which was standard for 8" double-sided MFM diskettes. Also, all the references I've seen say that the system uses an 8086, not a V20.
❤❤❤ Sweet setup ! #merry2024Christmas
Gotta love those old NEC APC's
