I've got a CH376S module on the Z80 playground v1.1 so that means I can run Tiny Basic and save and load programs. I've also added DIR and ERASE so I can manage files on the USB Pen Drive.
Full Z80 Playground playlist is here: kzfaq.info/sun/PL3arA6T9kycptsudBx3MyLbHCOjdoBhO6
The goal now is to get CP/M 2.2 working on this board, so that I can play text-based adventures!

I would watch a narrated video of this guy watching paint dry. His voice is that good.

Truly awesome: conceptually simple but also simple to use.

This is awesome, I'm so glad I've found this because I'm trying to do a very similar thing, I've never seen anyone else do the ROM/RAM interchangable thing before (I also had a similar idea but instead of overlaying I would swap out the low 32K for ROM temporarily, load the program into the high 32K and jump into it, then disable the low 32K of ROM and enable low 32K of RAM). In any case I will be watching this series with great interest! It would be very interesting to see your schematics so I can learn from someone who knows what they're doing unlike me :p

Yes swapping in and out rom and ram is mind bending. I kept putting variables in rom areas and wondering why they didn't change.

Are you or have you made this open source? I'd like to build one :-)

You should make the next goal to write Windows 3.1 in tiny basic.

@@nathanwoodruff9422 it would be ambitious to write 3.1 for it I like the idea though but it would need a video card and standard memory map and more ram
