 Keep in one place but encourage starting messages with "CP/M:" so folks not 
interested can manage efficiently.  I am interested.

As far as CP/M discussion goes: while I probably don't have the technician's 
chops to do a REXCPM installation on my 102 given the surface mount ROM issue, 
I'm still quite interested in the discussion.  Significant new development on 
the platform is fascinating!  Should I remain in the traditional T world I'd 
still love to hear about the fabulous new things happening on the CP/M side.

My two cents - One list works better for me.

Thanks to the guys doing the heavy lifting...

Yeah, I think keep it on this list. Then it covers the REX part of REXCPM.

Re: [M100] CP/M mailing list, REXCPM

[Kevin Becker]

I've had my 102 for many years, although not since it was the latest
thing.  I lusted after one when they were new but I was just a kid.  I
was very fortunate to get a Tandy 1400LT to take to college from my
generous parents, but didn't get a Model T until sometime in the early
2000s from Craigslist.  It seems "recent" and yet that is almost 20
years ago at this point.

I wanted a separate Model T to try out CP/M so I bought an M100.  It
had some LCD issues which I still haven't addressed but I managed to
score a good price on another M100 bundle so now I have two.  Much like
my CoCos, somehow these things seem to multiply.

What Kevin said, except I just happen to still have the 100, 102, 200 and NEC 
units from the days when they were the latest thing. But I used CP/M in those 
days and found it to be easy to use and effective for the relative simplicity 
of the computers of the day. CP/M over, e.g., WordPerfect any day.  But I like 
one mailing list to cover them all.

Re: [M100] CP/M mailing list, REXCPM

I'd prefer one list for all M100 stuff but I suppose it doesn't matter
much either way. I'm not likely to be much of a contributor but I'm
very interested in trying out CP/M and even bought a (okay several)
M100 just for this purpose.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the update. I am looking forward to reading the details on your
website.

Yes, it would be good to revive the MTCPM mailing list.

Regards,
Jon
