Here's a question that I can't seem to get a straight answer from the Tandy guys here in Canada, soooooooooo... I have a Tandy 1000A (note the A!!), with 640K, 1 serial card, and 2 360K floppies. I have decided to use my last precious slot for a Miniscribe 3765 (65 meg RLL or 40 Meg MFM, i believe). According to a recent discussion in this group, I am led to believe that my BIOS roms (ver 01.01.00 (c) 1984,1985) will support this hard disk and I have found a controller that can be made "Tandy-compatible" with a few jumpers. Have I missed anything? Am I in the clear? Can I buy this card and bring my Tandy into the 20th century? If I could get an answer from one of those neat guys in Tandy tech support, or someone else who is knowledgeable about Tandy 1000A's, I would be very grateful. | Kelly Kendrick | #include <disclaimer.h> | | Bell-Northern Research, Ltd. | This area is reserved for future | | Ottawa ON Canada K1Y 4H7 | expansion. -> ( ) | | UUCP: uunet!bnrgate!bcarh340!kellyk | ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) ;-) |
