It's been so long I can't remember what the code was I used. I looked it up online. The Aquarius had a Zilog Z80 8-bit processor, which I'd read is still in production today. 4KB of RAM (expandable to 20 KB) I think I mixed up the two numbers. The OS was Microsoft BASIC. Math CAD was light-years ahead of what that could do with that.
