This thread was interesting. Is there a table on some wiki that compares
the three models?
There were quite a few things I learned. I knew there was a difference in
the RAM size for the Model 200, but I didn't know why. I also didn't know
the other models couldn't bank switch. Other things I found
My understanding is the M100 keyboard was considered a little asocial since
it was noisy. Wasn't really usable in meetings.
One "fix" was to modify the keyboard with orthodontic rubber bands to
deaden the sound.
I think the 102 / 200 keyboards were changed to address the noise issue.
Personally
Hello folks, I hope you're all having a good new year.
I've been a M100 owner since I got my first unit as a 16-year-old kid, who
managed scratch up enough money to get one when Radio Shack was blowing them
out the door to make room for the T102. I still have that machine, plus a few
other M10

I find the keyboards on my 100s to be superior to the 102. The 200
keyboard is the best of the line though - IMO. The more modern parts
in the 102 *might* make it more durable, but mostly the difference
today is that the 102 doesn't seem to suffer from the terrible
capacitor leakage of the 100. Ove
