<><< Geez, where do you guys keep all these computers??? >>
4bedrooms and the computer room is the smallest and also my office. That
limits me to 150sqft or about 1000cuft inside the house. The garage
is also huge (and resonably warm in the winter) so a fair amount it out
there too.

Although it is very clean and included all the manuals and software, I paid
twice that for my Executive.

In addition to the previous message today, I also have an original Tandy
1000 (no suffix) that can go a number of ways:
Main unit with 640k ram (expansion card), 2 360k floppies,
keyboard...$25 plus shipping
Main unit with 640k ram (expansion card), NO floppies, keyboard
........$18 plus shipping
Main unit with basic ram (no expansion), NO floppies,
keyboard...........$ 15 plus shipping
The shipping weight is dependant upon the way it gets sold. Buy the
complete unit ($25 plus s/h) and I'll throw in a Tandy joystick. As to
the items I'll have left, that depends on how the unit gets sold.

This is the one in the sort of peach-colored IBM binders with
slipcases, right? I had a copy of that a few years back (gave it to
an interested friend back east). While I had it I made some
observations. The manuals didn't mention hard^H^H^H^Hfixed disks at
all. They also seemed to indicate that diskettes held about 160KB
(i.e. no knowledge of double-sided disks). And it didn't want to boot
on anything I had access to except the Panasonic Business Partner in
the QA lab at work -- I'm not sure whether it objected to 80x86s for
x>=2, clock speeds > 4.77 MHz, or what.

Sorry, didn't mean to send this to the list. My apologies....

While I'm here, I am desperately searching for books on 6502 Assembly,
especially....
"6502 Programming Manual"
SYNERTEK or MOS Technology
"6502 Assembly Language Programming" by Lance Leventhal
Osborne/McGraw-Hill
"Programming the 6502" by Rodney Zaks
Sybex
....but any books would be considered.
Cheers,

UCSD pascal? I never used the IBM version but the S-100 version had a way
to add device drivers for hard drives ( I recall doing that to add in hard
drive support for UCSD on DYNABYTE S-100 boxes). Vague on this, but the
drivers were very low level, block read/write like in CP/M. If the IBM
version allows for it, you should be able to do a small driver that just
makes ROM BIOS calls for the hard drive.
