Yes, actually PC only ... but soon you could get the C (not C++, not
even C#) source to port it to other architectures
(Btw, I used the free tools from Microsoft, so there is no added cost
to compile it)

As I don't find any free Amigo/SS80 implementation, yes I do it myself ...
(I implemented only SS80 part of CS80 protocol, it was enough)

For other arch, I will port it myself to Xillinx FPGA in verilog
later, as I have done for a HP86 emulator.
You can get C sources at : http://sites.google.com/site/olivier2smet2/hpseries80
and verilog sources at :

I hope this will help you to port to other archs

I don't put the source now, because it's a 0.01 release (see when
running binary) only able to run basic and pascal since 3 weeks.

At least 20 years later you could run some stuff without having the
real machine (I don't have the real machine myself)
