The inspiration for me is to play  with one of these devices to see if
cpm is the next OS for me. I have some software concepts I'd like to
test.

The devices like the kaypro and the TRS-80 models with cpm are
compelling for me.

I'd like to double my usage and use them as  terminals  too. I have a
vps and a RPI that I use for various things. I also do a ton of BBSing.

Ultimately, I'd like to build a homebrew machine physically modeled
after a trs-80 data terminal/model 4p. So, a case that holds an LCD
screen and a keyboard with a standard modern qwerty layout as well as
the hardware. It is going to be a tall project.
