It's been too long since I last worked on this machine, a КР580ВМ80Аbased (KR580VM80A, the Soviet version of the Intel 8080) computer from the early 1990s, so this is a quick catchup video.

I'd made some small modifications to get it running replaced the original 5V and 12V linear regulators with modern versions, changed some LEDs, and replaced the TVsocket with a DIN5 socket so I could get some video out.

I'm at the stage now where I want to try to load some software. The BASIC seems pretty flaky still ... haven't had much luck with that ... but I'm hopeful I can load some software via WAV files.

Will create an audioinput cable and give it a try next.
