Dive in! What do you envision yourself doing with the M100?
The biggest issue you may have is getting data and programs to & from the Model 100. I suspect you will use RS-232 with a terminal emulator program. I use Tera Term. The backpack drive is also a great method in that it uses a micro SD card. I bought mine from Jeff Birt. It doesn't get much more slicker than that. See his video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3es0NLJmd2c. To get your own, you will need to contact him.

The TRS-80 Model 100 was my second real computer. In the mid 80s I worked-part time at Radio Shack, while going to college. My first real computer purchase was a 64K Color Computer 2, then about a year later I bought a Model 100. I have spent the better part of the last year re-learning the Color Computer hardware and software, and I have decided to do the same for the Model 100. If there are any good resources for someone just getting back to the Model 100 after a few decades, please send the links! Best regards, Carlos Nunez
