CP/M 68K Operating System

The CP/M 68K Operating System was actually supplied by Digital Research, and sold by Quest Automation Ltd for use with their Quest Floppy Disk Drive.

The program was primarily designed to be used with the Quest Floppy Disk Drive, as it was reliant on the O/S card added onto that disk interface. It could however, also be used from microdrive, provided you owned the OScard from Quest.

CP/M 68K Operating System was a full implementation of the CP/M operating system, with an added 68000 assembler, C compiler and comprehensive manual.

CP/M 68K also provided the means of controlling the Quest Winchester Hard disk system.
