One of my friends was way ahead of the rest of us in 1987, and bought a V20 to upgrade his Tandy computer. He works for a telcom now. Nice to see one still churning away.

I bought my first NEC V20 in 1986 or 1987. It was my first time touching the motherboard of a computer which made it nerve wracking, but they were very popular at the time. I bought mine mail order through the Exec PC BBS, which I think was in Chicago.

Is there any PCjr software that lets you use the 8080 emulation mode of the V20 (i.e. for running CP/M software)?
