This is explained in the Model 100 user manual, although now I cannot remember where, and turns up in other early Microsoft products. Where negative numbers have a dash, positive numbers have a space, and this needs to be taken into account if you have occaision to turn a number string into a

Hi all, Receiving a T102 soon and have a PC-2. Also have the Tandy hardside briefcase coming I had the PC-2 as a kid and having the T102 will be a nice addition. The T102 draws 6V and 400 mA and so does the PC-2. The power connector for the T102 I think in the same as the T100 (5.5x2.1 mm) so

It's not the semicolon leaving the space; positive numbers leave a space in front to allow for a possible minus sign. If PRINT USING doesn't do what you want you could convert it to a string and use MID$ m - Original Message - From: James Zeun To: m...@bitchin100.com Sent:

Yup. It has a number of options that define how a number is printed, including moving the minus sign to the end, but if your number is variable length it may not help you. You may also have to change 'TOTAL' to something like 'TT' because TO is a reserved word. Try: TT=2*17 print

In practice, the 102 won't draw anywhere near 400mA under most circumstances. Just about any DC battery pack rated in the 6v range will do the job. If you feel like adding a fast blow fuse, more power to you. On Mon, Jan 13, 2020, 6:49 PM Michael Rebar wrote: > Hi all, > Receiving a T102 soon

To that list, you could add: * Internal nicd battery is dead and being charged rather than merely maintaining/floating at the time * Any/all the ports could draw a little more from having something actually connected. The barcode, bus, and option rom sockets have actual 5v power supply pins
