That is kind of a problem actually, it is impossible to get work done
because everyone wants to marvel at it...

That's a shame; there's a pretty good list of diagnostic tests somewhere; I'll
see if I can find it.

I still get comments about my M100 at the coffee shop, despite us being a
regular fixture there for years!
Believe me, I know what a "personal" computer was/is. I learned
programming on a CDC-3600 that had 4K of magnetic core memory and a
drum operating system. We communicated with it using punched cards and
it occupied a space nearly as big as my family's house. The year you

I was at McDonalds the other day and I was typing away on my 102 and a guy
stopped and said "My God! Is that a TRS-80. I remember those. It still works?
Wow, that's cool. I always wanted one or those little things."

figured everyone shares the same interesting, using these machines. Be it
making hardware for them, writing programs or simply using them.

That is an interesting story. I found that M100s garner a lot of attention
out in public. I always show off the keyboard. Modern laptops can't hold a
