I've got one and it works great without a PC, yes stand alone. I use a
hex file to download to the unit and then run it on a Z80-Starter
Kit. I picked it up from a collector (he gave it to me). I used the
6800 version during the 80's when I worked at an engineering firm. I
loved using those emulators when working on code in board under test.
BTW, it's not for sale.

In the days just prior to the PC, was the Intertec Superbrain,
which ran a Z80 in C/PM. At the time, I was chomping at the bit
to get time on the thing (at work). Then it quietly disappeared
into some executive's home and was never seen again.

In the early 90's I bought four of them for $20 at a flemarket, just
so I could fool around with them. Two were for parts, but I later
resold them all to someone else.
What I remember is that C/PM lacked any sense of date and
time. By that time, looking at date/time stamps of files
from my unix experience was ingrained. But there were none
to be found on the floppy disks. It was otherwise a cute
little system for its time.

Located in Boulder, CO. Can ship anywhere at your cost.
For all the hours I spent using this, I can't remember anything about
CPM/DOS software for it. Feels like there must have been for downloading
code though. I do not have any "floppies" in the case, just the unit,
manual and pod. All the 5.25 and 8" floppies are long gone. A web search
may turn something up.
I have an active offer, but see more inquiries here. Send direct email if
interested, sell decision on Monday 8-Nov.

Is the EM-180B still available?

Ha! These were capable little devices -- though no joy unless
used with the "hosted interface". IIRC, that only ran under CP/M
(though it may have been ported to DOS some time after I used it)?
