I've created an EPSON PX-8 ROM with a modified Turbo PASCAL 3.0 main compiler file.
I was trying to work with the "original" version but due to the very small RAM Disk size, even .BAK files which are created automatically are too much.
So I patched it in a way that no Backup file is anymore generated.
See at my >
Epson PX8 page< for an updated file.
Btw. there is an interesting blog entry which describes also how to obtain a
NEW Epson PX-8 machine. And that's true - Star Technology aka Notebook Supplies is still offering that at:

And I am still looking for a source of that really rare 28-pin Molex carrier (p/n 50-39-5288), found some offer, but when I'm trying to order them, these parts are not available then :-(
