He wrote an assembler/disassembler for the machine and was generous enough to share his knowledge with us back in the early ’80s. I hope some of you remember him. Give to give you an idea: You could poke machine languare into these devices within an amazingly small amount of RAM. Those days were SO far ahead of their time. I was online with the PC-2 back in ’83 with it’s RS232 interface and could print out the results on the color printer/plotter. I wrote both a weight and balance program for the B-727 and a fuel transfer calculator for cross-feeding. It was actually useful. Someone ending up copying my program though for another airline. (Oh well!) Spent whole nights learning to program in BASIC, Assembly, and machine language on that thing. It was quite exciting.

anyone who can answer an enquiry by someone who has not yet subscribed (doing that in a few minutes) in under 10 minutes is worthy of respect. I used to take my PC-3000 everywhere and I mainly ran something called Lotus Agenda – an amazing program, nearest modern equivalent is something like Obsidian. Just joined your discord community

Thank you. I never thought to add th PC-3000 to PockEmul. Perhaps because it is not enough old 🙂
But you’re right, it is a wonderful machine and its CPU is yet emulated in PockEmul in the Casio Z1.
I think it should not be too difficult to find the ROM.
I will investigate this.

Do you have plans to do an emulation of the wonderful Sharp PC-3000?
