[net.micro] Satisfied Model 100 User

dwrowley (04/24/83)

I don't know much about the HX-20, but I am rapidly becoming more and more
impressed with the model 100.  I have had mine for about a week now, and
still have trouble believing that Radio Shack markets it (being a somewhat
disgruntled model 1 user).  While rumaging through memory, I came upon
some interesting things.  Among the list of i/o devices are "WAND" and "CRT",
presumably for the Bar Code Reader and a video display.  There also seem to be
instructions in BASIC to do with disk i/o (DSKI$, DSKO$)
Radio Shack are pretty vague about what will be available for the machine in
the future, but it seems promising.

All in all, I am a satisfied user (in fact this posting was prepared on my
Model 100 and then uploaded to our vax through the 300 baud modem).
