I only have the first edition and it goes into detail explaining the
requirements for making a universal interface for use with trs 80 1-4,
trs coco, apple 2 (2e & 2+ and 2gs), c64 & c128, vic-20,
heathkit/trionyx h-8s and of course - pc,xt,at,system2 model 30 and
compatibles.

He explains things well.

Transactor Magazine occasionally had articles about this.  An archive is
here:

I have a great book from the early 80s simply called "Robotics" by Usborne
that included plans for a robot that you can control from a VIC20/C64 or or
BBC Micro.  I *think* this is the same book, but since it's a revised
edition they probably "updated" the computer interfacing to PCs.

Also, the staple "Robot Builder's Bonanza", has a very short section on
using a C64, and the principles in the book apply to most computers.

"I like to be organised. A place for everything. And everything all over the
place."

I found some great stuff on the web, by just searching google.
It was a couple of years ago, but some of it should still be there.
