I had posted back a few months ago requesting some Philips P2000T info. I'm still looking for that info. Specifically looking for the command to load cassette file. I've tried CLOAD and LOAD to no avail.

HI,
Is it running BASIC or CPM, it was capable of running both?

It runs BASIC. Not sure if it runs CP/M.

It helps that CLOAD is the proper command. but I still can't get it to work. When I type CLOAD, it gives me a "niet gevonden" message. Not sure what that mens, but it comes up right away. I can upload the emulator I'm using if you like.

Thank you, Crusty. Now I just need to figure out why it says that. According to the video Hot Trout put on here, a simple CLOAD should work, but why isn't it?
By the way Crusty, congratulations are in order for your find of that massive retro computer find. That's a find of a lifetime (not to mention you'll NEVER be bored again!)
