I have a PX-8. It does work with tape, but very badly --- it's slow even for tape and painfully limited. It emulated a disk on tape, with automatic winding for access to multiple files, and required mounting/dismounting tapes or else you lost data. It was just about good enough for loading and saving Basic programs, but only just. Using it with CP/M is an exercise in frustration.
