This probably doesn't help you, but I vaguely remember a rumor that, before
the Tandy 200 was ready, Microsoft used Z29 terminals as screens for
software development. I have no idea how this would work, but it is
plausible one could run a T200 "headless". I wonder if whoever ended up
buying Bill Gates's Tandy 200 development unit at auction ever dumped the
ROMs that were on it.

If you (or your hardware tech friend who made the BackPack) come up with a
brilliant replacement, let us know as LCD mortality is something we don't
yet have a good solution for.
