Am I understanding this correct that whether a C64 (or C128, or other C64 
related computer) will operate with the CP/M Z80 cartridge to a big part is 
due to which vendor(s) of the 257's and perhaps other 74 series chips are 
installed in the computer? If so, those who have the cartridge and a 
selection of machines could try to verify if it generally holds true. In the 
rare case those chips are socketed, perhaps they could be substituted for 
another brand if a dog slow, 40 column CP/M or other Z80 application is 
desired to run on a C64 in the 21th century.

Best regards
