There is ongoing work on a USB to M2 keyboard adapter. The individuals involved say it's close. I am eagerly awaiting it as well!

One more day until the next live show! I want to encourage you to join us on Zoom and interact with others in the community! PM me for details.
It's always a big deal to see another Model II come back to life! Enjoy!
There are a lot more XENIX systems up and running today than when I initially wrote this post. At least 15 by now. :)
The challenge is in keeping them running.
Even though we have some understandable nostalgia, we're much better off as a community if RS would just die already!
I don't believe you can run anything other than LDOS/LS-DOS with the M3SE as it has a bunch of custom drivers. Ask Peter Bartlett though.
I'm curious what parts have a 1986 date code? Model II production stopped in the 82/83 timeframe.
The A11082 is a better PS with greater capacity and is needed to support a full card cage. Go...
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to the TRS-80 community!
Here's a message originally published in TRS-Link Vol. 26. Enjoy!

Theoretically, a well behaved TRSDOS 6/LS-DOS 6 Model 4 application should run on the Model II with LS-DOS 6. This assumes the application uses the LS-DOS SVCs exclusively.
EDIT: We’re pushing the date by one week due to unforeseen technical issues.
Come join us for our end of year review show on Sat January 2nd at 9PM EST!
Join us on YouTube or PM me for a Zoom...
ARCNET was only implemented on the II/12/16/16B/6000 and PC lines. The III/4 did have the Network 4 system which was based on Corvus' OmniNet.
We have lot's of good ARCNET info at the...
Thanks for the suggestion. Yes, we've basically ignored the YouTube chat up until now but I'll try to rectify that situation given the number of people who join via YouTube.
We’ll be on in a few hours. PM if you want to join the interactive Zoom session.
As gp2000 recommended, try to get to the Cass? prompt and the the BASIC prompt. Then type ?MEM and see if the RAM is all recognized. If you get there, you are in good shape and most likely only the...
Not in my reality. :). Fixed. Thanks.
The next TRS-80 Trash Talk live show is scheduled for Saturday Nov 28th at 5pm EST.
We'll be reviewing game submissions for the TRS8BIT game competition. There have been a lot of submissions...
It's the nicest paint job of any Tandy IMHO.

The Tandy 3 is essentially a rebadged Model III with a really, really nice white paint job. It's quite desirable by Tandy collectors and I think it will fetch a nice price on eBay. If packed very...
Did you see he even reproduced the Type 2 HD interface board? Very cool!
I picked up a quirky TRS-80 accessory recently that we discussed on the latest TRS-80 Trash Talk Live show. It's a Scott VET/2 (Scott Instruments Voice Entry Terminal).
I don't know much about it...

I'm pretty sure Mav at one time sold a MIII Grafyx solution replica. Ask him if he still has any on hand.
