Explore the expanding modern software ecosystem surrounding the NABU Personal Computer including Open Source IshkurCPM CP/M 2.2, MSX game ports, homebrew software, online services, and new features added to the revived NabuNetwork.com platform. This video demonstrates how the retro computing community continues developing and enhancing software for the NABU PC decades after the original NABU Network disappeared in the mid-1980s.
Highlights include demonstrations of the NabuNetwork.com Internet Adapter software, headless control support for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Raspberry Pi systems, CP/M functionality, local virtual disk support, NABU BASIC 2.0, and multiple games and software packages running directly on original NABU hardware. The video also showcases homebrew titles including Snake and Tetris by ProductionDave, arcade-style games such as Pac-Man, Galaxian, Rally-X, and Time Pilot, along with Infocom interactive fiction titles including Zork I.
Additional demonstrations include PTXPlay 8-bit chiptune playback, CP/M customization features, joystick and keyboard controls, virtual disk management, and the growing ecosystem of community-developed NABU software and hardware enhancements. For retro computing enthusiasts, CP/M users, Zilog Z80 fans, and collectors interested in early online computer systems, the NABU PC remains one of the most fascinating examples of internet-connected home computing before the modern internet era.
