- I love to tinker with my Tandy model 100 portable computer, but I'm
- going to grad school soon and will not have the space to move my
- system or time to use it. Therefore, I'm going to sell/trade it for
- what I can. Anyway, here's my system:
-
- Tandy model 100 portable computer
- - 2.5 Mhz 80C85 processor
- - 32K RAM 32K ROM
- - 40 char X 8 line display
- - Built in BASIC, and address, text editor, terminal programs.
- - Parallel printer port (with cable)
- - RS232 port (DB25 pins)
- - Cassette interface (with cable)
- - Built in 300 baud modem (with cable)
- - Bar code reader interface
- - runs about 15-20 hours on 4AA batteries
- - AC adapter & fake leather case included
-
- Peripherals & accessories
- - 3.5in portable floppy drive (uses 4 AA's, AC adapter
- included) stores about 100K per disk.
- - Tandy DVI Disk video interface (2 5.25in drives and video
- output) Includes interface cable. Stores about 150K per
- disk.
- - Owner's manual and technical reference manual.
-
- Software
- - Interactive solutions Database/Spreadsheet/Word Processor
- software on installed ROM cartridge. (with manual)
- - Spectaculator (another spreadsheet) on cassette.
- - StarBlazer 100 game (like arcade game Defender) on cassette.
- - about 700K of PD software on DOS disk (the entire archive of
- software from ftp.eos.ncsu.edu)
-
- It should be noted that the only problem with this system is that
- occasionally the model 100 LCD display goes blank if the contrast is
- turned up too high. I think that the contrast potentiometer is dirty.
- Otherwise, everything is in excellent shape and clean.
-
- What I'm really looking for is a high speed modem/money in exchange
- for my The modem would hopefully be at least 9600 baud (v.32) but
- Ideally would be 14400 baud (v.32bis). The V.42, V.42bis, and lower
- speed standards would obviously be supported too. If you're even
- mildly interested in this system, send me E-mail or give me a call.
- Whether you'd like to buy some/all of this system or have something to
- trade--let's make a deal--this is VERY negotiable.
