Those of you who are running HP 2000 Time-Shared BASIC on the HP2100 
simulator may wish to read a monograph I have posted here:

  http://alum.mit.edu/www/jdbryan/running_hp_2000_tsb.pdf

It discusses the requirements for successful TSB startup and operation and 
the issues involved in synchronizing the dual-CPU simulation setup required 
by TSB.  TSB has run successfully on SIMH for many years, but the advent of 
multi-core host machines has increased the difficulty in getting the two 
SIMH instances to coordinate properly.  The paper presents some 
configuration guidelines that improve the probability of successfully 
running TSB.
