I saw a used tandy 100 recently and wonder how it differed from the 102. There was 29k bytes of ram available when I powered up. The slots for the roms were empty ( one was marked 8087, a floating point unit?). Isn't there a C compiler available? The Friendly C compiler? Also, someone sent me mail indicating he had a color computer available. I tried to email him that I was only interested in the disk controller and only then if it had gold plated connectors. If he is reading this, I tried to email to you but I could not get thru. How much did you want and is it a gold connector? Thanks!

The 100 is THICKER and heavier than the 102. The 100 does not support Touch Tone dialing like the 102. The 100 and 102 have slight differences in the expansion bus. That means that early software/hardware for the 100 MAY not work on the 102, but software/hardware for the 102 USUALLY will work on both machines. Mike Yetsko
