May 11, 2009 – Model I / Free for Pickup

by @ 9:55 am. Filed under For Sale or Trade


May 11, 2009 – Model I / Free for Pickup
TRS-80 Model I with expansion interface, floppy drive, cassette recorder, and Line Printer VII (with complete dust covers), as well as TRS-80 power strip, joystick, and a bunch of manuals and books, are free for pickup
Click for Bigger Picture
As for the working status, here’s what I am told: The Model I does power up and does operate, but there may be an issue as the letters not all right. A test program ran. The E/I may or may not work (hard to tell), so it was not possible to test the floppy or the printer.
The items are in Auburn, California (Sacramento area).

As always, first come, first served (through emailing me only – not through usenet postings). If you are willing to pickup, please let me know, and I will put you in contact with the donator.

May 5, 2009 – Mythical Model III, Level I Found

by @ 10:45 pm. Filed under David Cooper, Site Updates


May 5, 2009 – Mythical Model III, Level I Found
David Cooper has located, with the aid of John Benson, a Level I Model III, and has taken pictures of the insides as well as dumped the ROM. David wrote:
       
Well, folks, the Model III, Level I ROM is no longer an extinct species!  I have
purchased a Model III, Level I machine and have made an image of it's ROM.

Before I continue, please allow me to thank John Benson of Australia for locating
this machine.  He notified me of the machine for sale so that I could purchase it.
Without his locating the machine, I would never have been able to obtain the
machine and image the ROM.

It appears that the ROM is a 4K ROM, even though it's plugged into the ROM A
socket on the Model III motherboard (which supports 8K ROMs).  I say this because
when I read the ROM, the A12 line *appeared* to be ignored.  This makes sense because
Model I, Level I ROM was only 4K.  But, it'd be nice to see a datasheet on this ROM.
I couldn't find one anywhere.  The chip number is SCM91616P, which is a Motorola ROM..

Horacio has provided another 80 Micro, and the data for Issue 99 has been added to the 80 Micro 1988 web page, and the searchable 80 Micro Table-Of-Contents database.
This brings the count up to 99 out of 101 with only two (2) issues from 1998 remaining.

March 27, 2009 – Site Updates

by @ 12:57 pm. Filed under Site Updates, Software Manual


March 27, 2009 – WordPress Done (I Think)
  • Although some pages require a little tweaking (most notedly, those magazine issue pages which were backed out of WordPress due to WordPress limitations), I believe all of the pages that are going to be transitioned to WordPress have been transitioned.
 
  • I have updated the H&E Computronics page to provide for larger cover images, additional issue details, and, of course, the associated Tables of Contents from each of the issues.
 
  • Finally, the NEWDOS/80 Page is now complete. Of course, if anyone has additional information, tips, hints, patches, etc., I would love to hear!
