8080 Test Machine

This is a test of PC8080, a new 8080-based machine emulator being added to the PCjs Project.

This test machine loads a copy of the 8080 Exerciser (specifically, 8080EX1) and intercepts just enough of the exerciser's CP/M calls to display its progress.

The good news: PC8080 passes all the 8080 Exerciser tests. At 2Mhz, the tests do take quite a while, but you can click the speed button while the machine is running to increase the simulated speed; it will wrap around to 2Mhz if you try to exceed the maximum speed that your system supports.

NOTE: The original 8080 Exerciser website is currently unavailable, so we refer you to the copy on archive.org. The 8080 Exerciser has also been "forked" on GitHub.
