For some reason the hard carriage returns are still scattered throughout the text. I think the entire rest of the site looks better than the text on that page. But, ah, whatever, hopefully it will drive more people into their basements and attics before and after visiting here.

As peripherals came on line, we had them at the store. My beloved Model 4D went over the rainbow a few years ago, but I am glad to see the anniversary is at least being recognized. And yes, I have joined the emulator world along with lots of other folks. Windows 7 just ain't for the average guy/gal.

The cassette wasn't built-in, must have been confusing it with the PET. Never seen someone use TRS-100 and TRS-200 to refer to the Model 100 and Model 200, either. All-in-all the typical rate of journalistic accuracy. For me the worst was saying that “Trash-80″ was a loving term (it was purely derisive).
