Hi, a little note from a TRS80 Virgin. We have here in out hot little grasp a TRS80 Model 100. Does anyone know anything about programming these things, what the ports do, what the 2 IC sockets (1x40pin and 1x28pin) are for? Any help would really cheer me up. It fires up in basic, with about 5 other applications, I was wondering how it stores these etc? - Simon -_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Simon P Travaglia, || Kia Kaha E Hoa!

In fact, it powers up into BASIC if you power down in Basic. Otherwise it should return to the Menu. The TEXT,TELCOM,ADDRS,etc. programs all manipulate strictly ASCII data. Hope this helps, tim
