Hey guys!!
Many thanks - extraordinarily helpful!!! One thing I will say, is that I appreciate that all the information I need is inevitably out there, but even in the context of this group, searching for it, knowing it when I find it, and understanding what I'm reading is far less obvious for me as a total novice, than it would be for folk who have been doing this for years. So I really do appreciate being pointed in the right direction! Greg: I saw your site mentioned in the archives here and paid you a visit on the strength of that - it's a great resource that I'll be visiting again! And thanks for the clarification. I did think the Android TV box looked like it could be promising, so it's good to know an uneducated guess was a reasonably good one. Once I have it, I suspect that'll be the solution of choice. It is really something to find a community like this for such a venerable piece of technology. It speaks volumes for the Model 100 and siblings that these laptops are so well regarded with such a loyal following and still used. I have no idea how well mine has been looked after, but there's not much in more modern technology that can make me smile every time I get it out of it's slip-cover! I may not be an avid participant in the list, but I'll be reading every word!

I created a recipe and software to use a Raspberry Pi 0, battery and display to create something similar to a NADSbox (i.e. you just hook it up and it works like a TPDD).??https://github.com/rlauzon54/pi-tpdd But you can run LaddieAlpha on your own PC or mComm on your phone/tablet to do the same thing. -- Weblog: http://ronsapartment.blogspot.com/ TRS-80 Pocket Computer 2 - TRS-80 Pocket Computer 4 - TRS-80 Model 100/102 - Tandy 1100FD - Tandy 1400LT - Commodore 64 - TRS-80 Model 4P RC2014 (Mini and Pro) - Altair-Duino with TI Silent 700 -?VT320 terminal/Raspberry Pi 0 Some people like to work on old cars.?

I'd suggest getting a REX to allow you to (among other things) easily have TS-DOS in ROM to make things as easy as possible. http://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=LaddieConhttps://github.com/bkw777/dlplushttp://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=Rex On Thu, 2020-06-04 at 21:26 +0200, Ron Lauzon wrote: > My understanding is that the NADSbox was superceded by dlplus and > later LaddieAlpha. > > I created a recipe and software to use a Raspberry Pi 0, battery and > display to create something similar to a NADSbox (i.e. you just hook > it up and it works like a TPDD). > https://github.com/rlauzon54/pi-tpdd > > But you can run LaddieAlpha on your own PC or mComm on your > phone/tablet to do the same thing. > -- > Weblog: http://ronsapartment.blogspot.com/ > > TRS-80 Pocket Computer 2 - TRS-80 Pocket Computer 4 - TRS-80 Model > 100/102 - Tandy 1100FD - Tandy 1400LT - Commodore 64 - TRS-80 Model > 4P > RC2014 (Mini and Pro) - Altair-Duino with TI Silent 700 - VT320 > terminal/Raspberry Pi 0 > Some people like to work on old cars.

You can then ftp the files to/from a pc if you load a ftp server/client on it OR just pull the sdcard and read it on your pc.. it runs MCOMM which is available for windows also but since you have a mac you can run laddialpha and get the same functionality with a rs232 port and a cable. I provide both with the android box, you could just move that cable on over to a usb port on your mac, and run the software.

What would also be nice to see on the market is simply a proper cable kit, full null to db25, the thin hood gender changer either with a FTDI USB serial adapter built in to the cable or that can be connected to the cable. Software could be separate with just instructions to download That would get people ramped up cheaply and quickly. All the stuff is out there one way or another but new users get overwhelmed. -- John. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
