]I just dug thru my closet and unburied my Model I, which had been sitting
]there for 3 years. At this point, I would like (initially) some pointers
]and info...
I just put mine in semi-retirement in favor of a Tandy 1000, but I think I
can help.
]To start off, does anybody still manufacture double density disk boards.
]Percom had the DoublerII and Logical Systems had the 5/8 Switch, I think.
]Both used to have them, but I dont know if they still do....
Try Tandy, they may have a few of theirs in stock.
Failing that, try: Aerocomp
Redbird Airport, Bldg. 8
P.O. Box 24829
Dallas, TX 75224
800-527-3582 (outside Texas)
800-442-1310 (in Texas)
They sell one for $99 without Dos ($159 w/LDOS, $179 w/NewDos 80)
] .....What about a cpu speedup kit? 1.78mhz
]is the pits. My rams are 120ns jobs (I >think<) so it can handle a z80a.
]
]One other question - has anybody hacked together a 80x24 crt controller
]system? .......
Try Holmes engineering. I don't have their address handy, but could
probably find it.
]Still going- I have a cross assembler for z80 under unix, but what I'd like
]would be a z80 C compiler - either a cross compiler running under unix or
]one in z80. Anyone have pointers to that?
I think Tandy might sell one for the Model III/4 series. If not, I
definately think that one is put out by the people that write their PASCAL,
Alcor systems.
]Are there any model I owners left out there? Please drop me a line!
][btw, have you seen 80-Micro? last time I bought a copy, it was >500 pages!]
Yeah. A couple of years ago, Wayne Green sold it to CW Publications. It now
caters mostly to the Model 4 crowd and is almost totally a review-oriented
publication. It also now runs just over 100 pages. :-(
