[comp.sys.tandy] model III, II

dnewton@carroll1.cc.edu (Dave Newton the Late) (03/10/90)

Hi all,
   Just grabbed a Model III with LDOS 5.1.3 and a Model II with virtually
nothing.
   Is there stuff for these via anon. ftp _anywhere_?  I'd like (at the very
least) an assembler, a cross-assembler for unix would be acceptable.
   does anyone do pd softwre for the III  anymore?  Hard drives?
   How about the Model II?  What can I do with that?  ( A mongo 64K system.
Z80?)

   My venerable Model I won't be lonely anymore.  Friends.  Models I, II, III,
and a IVp.  My mom will love me now...  arg...

Check with Dynacomp (178 Phillips Road, Webster, NY  14580)
for software.  Check a library or fellow compu-nerd for old
copies of 80-Micro (I've got a whole set, for supporting my
Model III) or PCM.

Also look into GEnie, CompuServe, or Delphi for downloadable
software (not ftp, and it'll cost in terms of access charges,
but you should find some good stuff).

Some of the places now supporting PC clones started off in
Tandyland (Aerocomp is one, I believe), and they may still have
some old TRS-80 stuff gathering dust.

It'll run CPM; check the cpm newsgroup(s) for PD software, or
(once again) Dynacomp.

Lucky....I've got a Model II; looking to get a Model I to
keep it company.
