System bus on T102 is hamstrung compared to M100. T102 can only support IO
read write whereas m100 exposes both memory and io.
The bus runs at full speed. Every cpu cycle on M100 could run on the
expansion bus. For IO only as in the T102, your ability to read or write
is limited by the software

What do you want it to do?
MVT100 exists. https://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=VT100
I'm aware of MVT, neat little project, but not really what I'm looking for.
I am mainly interested in non-volatile storage and network connectivity

Ken,
Thanks for the quick response! I seem to have misunderstood the design
intent of TDock, my apologies.
Certainly sounds like you have your hands full. One of my best friends has
an autistic sister that she helps care for, so I appreciate how much effort
that can be.
Best,

If you want external display and storage, I could possibly create a build
of LaddieAlpha with a display window, terminal emulation and some kind of
serial line multiplexing. Then any small form factor
Hey Mark,
TDock was an idea for a Pi Hat PCB to interface with the M100 Printer
port and then use the RaspPi as the display interface. I developed a
PCB and even built one and wrote some M100 software, but it never got
any farther than that. There were some grumblings about using a RaspPi
