All,

I acquired an 8096 SK  a while back with some unknown ROMs - at least to 
me. When it boots it tries to load a file called "autoload" from device 
8. The only clue I found to them was on a humanist website, which 
suggested that a company called PPM in Brookwood, Surrey, UK used to 
convert PET's and Apple II's for data acquisition and logging.

In the absence of any software or the hardware they interface to, I will 
probably just revert it back to a stock 8096 but the ROM's are posted 
here of they're of interest to anyone.

Here's a pic of the boot screen and the ROM's themselves.
