Re: Is the Ace-80 and Applicard z80 the same card?

The Franklin Ace-80 and the Appli-Card are the same. Both are made by
PCPI. If you look along the bottom edge of the Ace-80, you should see
"PCPI".

I have noticed that the two Ace-80 cards that I have do not have the
two expansion connectors that my Appli-Cards have. The connectors are
for attaching a 64K or a 128K memory card, or an I/O board. Both
expansion cards can be piggy-backed to each other (or two memory cards
together).

I was just comparing pictures of my Franklin Ace-80 cp/m card and the
Applicard Z80 cp/m  card, and they look identical except for the
Franklin
label on the card. Are they the same card, rebadged, or did one of
them
clone the other company's card? My guess is that Franklin rebadged the
Applicard.

Does anyone have both cards to campare side by side? I was just
curious.
