[comp.sys.tandy] TRS-80 Model II

netnews@psc90.UUCP (Remote mail paths) (05/09/89)

Hi,
	I have had a Model II for a while now. It was originally 
purchased in '81. I am just curious to know if anyone is using one, and 
what type of software you are using. Also, is anyone willing to trade
software, or just talk about the Model II and its uses in "todays" world.
I have Cobol, Basic, Scripsit 2.0, VidTex, and Profile Plus.

Thundering dinosauers!

We have 5 here in the office.  I am using them now almost exclusively
as terminals for my *nix machines (We have two Tandy 12's converted to
model 6000's plus a 3B1 and a Zenith 386).

The program I am running is "Console" which is a freebie from TRS but seems 
to be unknown to most of their folk.  It makes the MODII behave exactly
as the console does on a MOD12,16,6000.

I have a  large number of expansion drives.  I am advised the current value
of these devices is a negative number.  However, if you should want some
I will send them to you if you pay the freight.

On the other hand, if anyone has MOD II's that they wish to donate to
a University we will take them off of your hands and give you a receipt
which might be helpful at tax time.
