Has anyone a Disk Basic bootable image for these machines?, AFAIK there're two different Disk Basics, MZ-2Z002 and MZ-2Z021; but seems that none has been preserved, the only DOS available for emulation is TF-DOS. TF-DOS is a nice OS but I haven't found the way to execute type-in BASIC programs with it

Unfortunately, I am looking for these versions (MZ-2Z002/MZ-2Z021) too. |

Seems that they're extremely elusive I think both are pretty similar, 2Z021 has kanji support; but I suposse it must be completely compatible with 1Z001, 1Z002 and 2Z002 Basics. There's another alternative, the MZ-5Z007 QD Basic; but this must be even harder to find. In fact, is MZ-1E18 ROM dumped? |

I'm still confused, seems that MZ-1E18 and MZ-1E14 roms are the same, and even more strange, I've a MZ-1E18 (or at least looks identical) and it has a 2764 EPROM with a different ROM but with the same monitor: 9Z-503M. All of them seems to have the same functionality, near to zero, they only boot the QD when the slash is pressed while starting the machine; but after that nothing. Most probably because they're only able to load a file in a fixed RAM position and trying to execute it. Compared with the full monitor that the MZ-1500 has, they look really useless. Seems that these computers (2000/2200) were the swan song when talking about QD drives. |

The converted files (*.QDF) with the VirtuaQD tools works with EmuZ-1500 but not with EmuZ-2200. I guess the QD BASIC MZ-5Z007 for MZ-2000/2200 is an absolute must. |
