| Reference Number: Avaluer:7036596 |
Gemini Board PC Emulator for the Zenith Z-100.
The Gemini Board was a PC emulator circuit board designed to plug into the Z-100 motherboard and provide better IBM-PC compatibility mainly at the BIOS level. The board had a separate 8088 processor dedicated to handling BIOS and video compatibility. You transferred your Z-100’s 8088 onto the Gemini board and also routed the video cable through the board so the Gemini could plug directly into the Z-100’s 8088 socket and video connec...tor to provide both pass-through and IBM-PC modes of operation. You could also add an optional 8087 math coprocessor to the Gemini for even better compatibility and speed.
Due to the age of the board And the fact that I have no way to check the functionality of it I will be listing “ as is” for “ parts”. Though I will insure for shipping if damaged by shipper
