#88128 WRITEROM Message #88136
From: Sysop Dave Thomas Forum unknown · Products & Reviews August 5, 1985 10:47 PM
Anthony: Personal experience with Write ROM, though limited, has been most pleasing indeed. See WROM1.REV and WRIROM.REV in the DL 6 database; the latter is the most up to date. Just went through trash trying to find Traveling's blurb on Ultimate ROM and can't come up with it, but believe…

Anthony: Enjoy yourself! And just in case you forgot, the downloading instructions are found on the Bulletin menu, type B at Function menu, under Database Library — item 4 methinks. Or you can collect them from DL0 as DOWNLD.HLP. Enjoy … SIGing the 100 way … .^Dave^.

Howard: Whilst leaving Candy here to stare at your (UA RE T) prompt, Mortimer and I took a VERY quick look at Write ROM v. 1.3 and Supera v. 2.0 as to their functioning together. Supera's CTRL-K, ESC-1, ESC-2, and SHIFT-CTRL-F worked just fine from within Write ROM. Looking good…

Bruce: CISTRN.100 is not as flexible as XMODEM.312 and doesn't have the bells and whistles of the latter. It uses CompuServe A file transfer protocol and does not allow downloading with plain Telcom. Unlike the XMODEM series for the Model 100, Tandy 200, and NEC 8201A the CISTRN.100 program is…

From: Sysop Dave Thomas Forum unknown · Peripheral Support August 5, 1985 2:08 PM
Jimi: Further to David's comment, I seem to remember that PCSG and Holmes are now recommending that CDOS be turned off whenever not in use. Keep in mind that Micro Demon will be our COnference guest on Sunday morning, 11th, and Portable Computer Support Group's Mike Anders will be here…

Bruce: Suggest using DOWNCK.WM3 from DL 4 to make sure you have a good copy of XMODEM.312. Have a vague memory of my Mortimer going "wacko" first few times I tried to run the program and then I broke down and read the documentation. All I do now is Find,…

#88015- Tandy 200 Message #88025
From: Sysop Dave Thomas Forum unknown · Text, SIG August 4, 1985 10:16 PM
David: Many of the programs [majority] in the Data Library here will run on the Tandy 200 even though written for the Model 100. Before converting a program from TEXT to Basic, check it over to make sure it has no CALL, POKE, or PEEK statements. If those are present,…

#85804 RAM upgrade Message #85823
From: Sysop Dave Thomas Model 100 SIG · Tech Notes & Util. July 17, 1985 10:00 PM
Jim: There are two separate steps involved. First the basic Model 100 needs to be upgraded to 32K which is the MAXIMUM possible. That is done by installing 8K chips which may be bought for $25 to $125 each depending on how bought. Second, you may install 32K or 64K…

Jim: Aside from Rick's fine advice, methinks the POINT is that the approved adapter says – OUTPUT: 6V DC 400mA so what's the guy doing trying to pawn off an adapter rated at 150mA ??? Be careful … .^Dave^. Enter command, N for next message or for menu:n
