| What is this Site? |
This site is devoted to providing extensive information on the
line of TRS-80 personal home computers, with a specific focus on the
Model I,
Model III,
and Model 4.
There is also SOME information on the
Model 100/102,
Model 200,
Model 600,
Color Computer, and
Pocket Computer lines as well as
Printers.
Information from these links includes product descriptions, catalog numbers, pictures, prices, operations, hardware, software, etc.
|
You can also find utilities and information on how to read TRS-80 disks and how to read TRS-80 tapes on a modern PC, how to run them on a modern PC using a TRS-80 emulator and utilities to manipulate the disk images and cassette images once you have them converted. I can even read your disks for you into a format which you can use in a TRS-80 emulator on your PC.

Other information on the site includes online reference manuals for Level II BASIC and NEWDOS/80, as well as information (and walk-throughs) for the Scott Adam's adventures and tips/tricks/zaps/easter eggs. There are even utilities to play your old ORCH 80/85/90 files again!. Almost all of the magazine covers featured on this site also come with details about the issue, and the table of contents of the articles which were present. There are currently 200 pages to the site (not including news postings), so feel free to poke around.

You can even search through the TRS-80 Software Archive, the TRS-80 Magazine Tables of Contents, and the TRS-80 Catalogs.

Do you have real TRS-80 Model I, III or 4 disks lying around? LET ME RESCUE THEM! You can even use them in an emulator! |
Disks manufactured in the late 70's and early 80's were not designed to hold data this long. However, TRS-80 disks, if stored properly over the past third-of-a-century, can still hold error free data. However, that is a big "if".
If you have TRS-80 Model I, III or 4 disks lying around, please contact me. I can read those diskettes into a format which can then be used on modern PC's running emulators (letting you re-live your memories). This will also preserve your collection!
I do NOT charge for this. Since many people have additional questions about the process, I have (finally) put together a FAQ regarding converting your disks to answer many (if not all) of your questions.
