Jeff, I happen to use the TMS9928A a lot at the moment (working on a
Colecovision Homebrew).
You probably won't need it :o) but feel free to ask if you have any
issue with the Mikrokolor's video chip or its supported video modes.

Cheers,
Eric

Jeffrey:

As I mentioned to Randy Kindig yesterday at our Indy Retro Club meeting I'm
planning on attending Tandy Assembly this year. If you need an Olivetti
MC10, NEC8201, 8300, Starlett or one of the Tandy machines I'm in!. (Also
have a Z88, NC100, QuickPAD or other "slabtop" computers. Am happy to
contribute to table fees as needed.

Josh, I am planning on being there. I grew up just up the road a bit so it will 
be a good chance to be a nerd and visit family too. If you want to contact me 
off list (and have a PayPal account) I’ll send you some money to help cover the 
table costs.

The cost is $30 per table I think. I've inquired about getting 2
tables -- that should accommodate a reasonable number of exhibits.
Haven't heard back though.

Are you planning to be at TASM?

It seems like there will be at least a few of us with stuff to display at TASM. 
Should I go ahead and sign up for a M100 exhibit? I just don't want to do it if 
someone else already has.

Randy,

I was at CircleCityCon this past weekend, a hacker conference at the Westin
in downtown Indy.

Why not a retrocomputing village there?  We have enough people and Tandys,
and there's enough retrocomputing enthusiasts there.

Have a great week!

I will do my best to come this year. I grew up just up the road from 
Springfield in Champaign county so it will also be an excuse to go home to 
visit family.

 

I splurged a few weeks ago and picked up that Microcolor unit on eBay. It will

I attended TASM last year and it was excellent! Got to meet a bunch of cool 
people (Hi Peter!) and play with some cool machines.

 

This year I've arranged to give a Friday talk on Model 100-family 
troubleshooting and repairs, covering how to diagnose simple(ish) issues with 
the M100s and how to repair and possibly upgrade the machines. This hasn't been 
officially announced or scheduled by TASM yet but I'm pretty certain it's 
happening.

 

I would love to make this a collaborative effort and incorporate suggestions 
from the list. My goal is to get a rough outline together in the next month or 
two and then get feedback from folks on it. I'm more than happy to credit 
individuals on the list for their input -- my goal is simply to get more 
knowledge about the M100 technical details out into the world. Also, if any 
list members will be attending the Friday sessions at TASM and want to help 
GIVE the presentation, I doubt that the fest committee would mind as long as we 
let them know soon so they can add your name to the schedule.

 

Finally, I would, once again, like to collaborate on an M100 display/exhibit. 
Last year Randy, Peter Noeth, and I contributed displays to an M100-fam exhibit 
and it was very popular. I plan to show games and application demos running on 
100,102,200, and NEC-8201a, plus a Tandy WP-2 hopefully connected to a wifi 
Modem and BBS if I can manage the connectivity. I'd love to have other Kyocera 
machines shown (M-10, anybody?) as well as peripherals like DVI, TPDD, etc. 
I'll have a REX demo and maybe even REXes to sell (depends on my schedule if I 
can build a batch). If anybody wants to collaborate on the display -- or if 
anybody already has a M100 display planned for TASM -- please let me know (I 
haven't registered an exhibit yet).

 

Thanks to Randy and the entire TASM committee for putting on this great show! 
Hope to meet more Model-Ters there this year.

Tandy Assembly 2019 (the third iteration!) will take place on September 27th, 
28th & 29th 2019 in Springfield, Ohio.



We are very excited to announce that we are adding a day this year to Tandy 
Assembly and will be offering a new Friday feature called Tandy Tech Track!!  
This will be a selection of highly technical topics presented by some of the 
leading figures in the Tandy Radio Shack TRS-80 vintage computing community.



Exhibitor Registration is also now open, so if you have some cool Tandy stuff 
you want to show, please sign up!  While we have some speakers lined up as 
well, we still have openings for speakers to present interesting topics, so let 
us know if you have an interest.



We are planning to have an auction again this year as well, so please plan to 
bring any items you would be willing to donate to the event to offset the cost 
of producing it.  Any donations are much appreciated!

 

Finally, we would love to have you sponsor the event, if you are able to help 
out.  Sponsorships also help cover the costs of the show and help you advertise 
your hardware, software, business or service to vintage computer community. 

 

All the details are at

Thank you!,
