The ones I made to put up on arcadeshopper were specifically to provide reproductions of the originals, because otherwise there is no way to copy them still, not because it's the best dos. Also, aren't there utils in the m100sig that require the original dos? They call routines from the original

I made one for myself that has TS-DOS for the 100/200 and NEC on it along with some utilities that I use for the NEC like LINE and XFER. Memory test utilities might be a good idea as well. I have one that came with my SideCar for the NEC but I'm sure there are similar ones for the 100 and 200.

John, I would agree with you about using a real TPDD for every day use. But I they are fund to spin up every now and then. According to the TS-DOS manual (http://www.club100.org/library/doc/tsdos.html) there is such a disk. Though I have never come across it. Looks like the boot code along

If people are really excited about using a real TPDD maybe we should be making TSDOS boot disks. I don't see the point of using a real TPDD but I really don't see the point of using FLOPPY.CO I assume such an animal exists? If it does chances are I have one somewhere. -- John.

Scott, glad to see you are willing to do this. If I may offer a suggestion. There is quite a bit of space left on the default TPDD2 system disk. Saving DOS100.CO and DOS200.CO onto that disk would allow a user to boot Floppy.CO and then use it to load TS-DOS. Just a thought. Kurt On Mon, Jul

A couple questions. 1) What are you planning to do with the boot disk? 2) Do you have a PC setup with the proper cable for TPPD emulation? The reason for asking is this. The boot disk allows you to 'boot' or load Tandy's TPDD client software onto your computer. This is floppy.co. It works,

Okay. I totally dropped the ball on this. I offered free TPDD2 disks a few months back and then got busy on stuff. I think I still have the emails about it, but i'm going to pick this back up right now i'll send out these for the price of shipping (send me shipping money when you receive them.

Fred, If this is one of my REX units (shipped with wood spacer and a purple polka-dot ribbon) then my apologies for your issues. I tested the spacer sizing in 100, 102, and 200 units and found what seemed like the right size to prevent over-insertion and "spontaneous removal". I'd have to check
