Sadly, no. No memory protection, you see.

Off ebay, An Amstrad CPC 6128 will do.
Though you may want an SD Card adapter to get the files onto it.
As the banner on the site mentions, it works on Amstrad CPC, MSX, Amstrad PCW and Enterprise 64/128 (I'm not sure what this last one is).

#9Symbos is pretty cool but it's a crying shame that it's closed source. A lot of people in the z80 community don't understand the value of open source, but will give away binaries for free.

#10So could this be ported to anything with a Z80? Like, for example, a TI-83+ graphing calc?
