What is Micro-80?

EDITOR: IAN VAGG

SOFTWARE EDITOR: CHARLIE BARTLETT

HARDWARE EDITOR: EDWIN PAAY

U.K. CORRESPONDENT: TONY EDWARDS

MICRO-80 is an international magazine devoted entirely to the Tandy TRS-80 microcomputer and the Dick Smith System 80/Video Genie.

The purpose of MICRO-80 is to publish software and other information to help you get the most from your TRS-80, System 80 or Video Genie and their peripherals. MICRO-80 is in no way connected with either the Tandy or Dick Smith organisations.

Each month we publish at least one applications program in Level I BASIC, one in Level II BASIC and one in DISK BASIC (or disk compatible Level II). We also publish Utility programs in Level II BASIC and Machine Language. At least every second issue has an article on hardware modifications or a constructional article for a useful peripheral. In addition, we run articles on programming techniques both in Assembly Language and BASIC and we print letters to the Editor and new product reviews.
