[M100] Steven's T200 RAM

I just built one of your model 200 ram boards Steven, and it worked. As we already talked about, the pins were tedious to do but at least I found a reasonably reproduceable procedure without any special jig. I had some generic cheap round pins from ebay, and when you pull them out of the insulator

Re: [M100] Any writers still using an M100?

I’ve used M102 occasionally for conference and meeting memos at work. The keyboard is good, so I can type without looking at the screen and still get a readable memo. The only extra hassle is transferring the files. > Kurt McCullum kirjoitti 3.11.2017 kello 4.02: > > Writing is what prompted

Re: [M100] new project

Perhaps I should remind everyone at this point that I wrote a program to sync your time with the NIST in Colorado, it is on my member upload page. Also a program to change one's time to account for DST or any other time zone change. On 1 November 2017 at 08:04, Stephen Adolph wrote: > ah, so in s

Re: [M100] Any writers still using an M100?

Writing is what prompted me to buy my first 102. Which led to a 200, 100 and 8201. And of course that also led to mComm, Sardine support and the SARDOS romguess I need to spend less time developing and more time writing. Kurt -Original Message- From: M100 [mailto:m100-boun...@li

Interesting. Certainly seems to use a wafer LIKE the Exatron Stringy floppy but not exactly the same. Same concept maybe. Terry (Tez) On Fri, Nov 3, 2017 at 2:17 PM, Josh Malone wrote: > I just stumbled upon this while casually browsing NEC auctions. > > https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/152770054

[M100] Stringy floppy for M100?!?

I just stumbled upon this while casually browsing NEC auctions. https://www.ebay.com/ulk/itm/152770054683 Has anybody heard of this? Says that it even includes the driver. Wonder how this worked? I'm guessing no interface to any DOS or anything. Weird. -Josh

Hello, I do know Evan. I've met him several times and can tell you several things: 1. He is a journalist. He does a lot of writing for TechRepublic these days and has written for several other sites and magazines in the past. 2. If there is anyone that can credibly make that statement, it wou

The Model 100 keyboard is the quality that has kept me using mine. I do have other devices but I prefer it for my writing. It is still as usable as it always has been. With the addition of REX and Quattro it is even more usable that it was. Fred Whitaker From: Bill Loguidice

Re: [M100] Any writers still using an M100?

I would imagine few use it for serious writing anymore. Modern laptops have pretty good battery life (10 hours+) and are pretty portable, as well as have all the modern conveniences and connectivity that you generally need these days. There are also plenty of distraction-free and purpose built apps

I thought some of you might be amused by this reply to a post I made in a CCtalk mailing list thread discussing the best device for undistracted writing with a good keyboard, display and battery life: FWIW, Evan is a well-known figure in the vintage computer community. m - Original Message
