I recently bought a Model 100 that hadn't been turned on in years; put in

The DVI solution being text-only was kind of a drag for me. I was already
used to the NEC CRT solution which supports 40x24 and a couple of different
graphics-only modes, so I never really had much interest in a DVI
personally. Now Stephen's idea about a new video solution definitely

Well, it may not have many practical applications and you do sacrifice
portability, but I don't think there's any other way at this time to
use/display Telcom, BASIC etc. in 80 x 25 mode,
Folks,
My thanks to Brian, Jeffrey, Josh, John, and Anthony for their helpful replies!
I had been thinking along the lines that an inspection was required before
powering up the Model 100, as I’d do with a line-powered computer. But based on
the comments from Brian and Anthony, I'll try the
Agree. Big, bulky, limited. You can do the same thing much smaller and
easier in other ways. But, if wanted for collectible or curiosity fun factor,
by all means go for it. I've been there. I've obtained and restored vintage
computers for fun and relaxation only to later sell when they
I'll keep an eye out for them on Ebay then.

Hi I assume you mean the DVI (disk video interface). They are somewhat rare
and proven working ones can go for $150 on up. Often they are not tested
because they require a special cable and software.
I’ve bought 2 the last year or so.

I recently got a Model 100, and I was thinking about getting a VDI sometime
in the future. Are these units rare? It looks like no one is selling them
