A couple of days ago I saw a copy of
the specifications for the new Model
200 portable computer from Tandy. Here
are some of the details:
16 x 40 pop-up LCD display
80c85 cpu
72k ROM - includes same software as
Model 100 plus Multiplan (tm).
up to 72k RAM
Seems that it uses bank-switching to
accomodate the possible 144k of memory.
I was surprised to see a screen width
of only 40 characters instead of 80 --
it's not much of an improvement over
the Model 100 (like the one I am using
right now...:-).
Prices, at least in Canada, seemed
comparable to those for the Model 100
when it first came out: ~CDN$799 for
the base machine (with 8k RAM?).
