Thanks Alex,

I'm more than happy to stand (sit?) corrected. :-)
And if anyone can convince the M-100 to talk at 31250 baud, it would be Ken LOL

I've got a vintage MIDI synthesizer with the exact same CPU as the M100. (Korg Poly800) This is actually the reason I bought the T102 I have, as a platform to learn 8085 assembly. It is absolutely fast enough to process MIDI. The protocol was designed for and proliferated on computers of this era.

In the Tandy's case, the hitch is really getting the UART to go the right speed. Last time I tried, no combination of timer/divider settings would get it close enough to 31250 Baud.

    Hi Ken,

    I highly doubt the M100 could handle such a protocol but the first
    thing
    I thought of was MIDI; that is *the* electronic standard for defining
    and playing music.  Again, not sure if the M100 has the horsepower to
    parse or play music from MIDI, but it was just a thought.

    (belated) Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year!
