Not really. We designed the logic analyzer to be a general-purpose computer (running CP/M -- this was in the days before DOS), and I just took advantage of the fact. We had many other special graphics to display the waveforms.

Ours looked a bit like this, though it had a slot for a 5-1/4" floppy disk.

I STILL have a fully-functional Z80-based CPM machine in storage; along with an EPSON MX-80 printer.

I keep thinking I’ll get them out, blow out the literal bugs, and show the kiddos what a human can do when dealing with an O/S that knows its place in the universe.
