- Optional banked memory (16 banks with 64 Kbytes)
- MMU with flexible ROM and memory mapped I/O support
- Optional hard drive support for additional storage capacity with
choice of disk geometry
- Various devices for Northstar, CompuPro and Vector Graphic
- Optional networking support via TCP/IP
- Support for multiple consoles
- Timer and keyboard generated interrupts
- Memory access and instruction breakpoints
- VT100 emulation via Telnet
- Ability to set the clock speed for "real-time" simulation (useful for
games)
- Based on SIMH 3.8-0
