These questions are for a friend (not me, so I don't have the equipment super handy, so.. ), and PLEASE reply directly to me, I don't read this bboard as much as I should. First - A TRS-80 Model I... With Expansion Interface, slave disk drive, monitor, and dot matrix printer (model 779 or 799? - huge hulking monster for business applications). Questions: How, where and from whom can my friend purchase a master drive (RS SN 26-1160), and how much would they cost? If someone out there has an old one they want to get rid of, this is fine too... Also, the printer is a 36pin male, and the card edge it plugs into is 34 pins, so, does anyone have the pin-outs for this? ($30 for a cable is a bit much ). And any other info on this printer or a manual would be nice. ZX81 - with a cassette player.. What, if anything, is currently available ( outside of garage sales ) for this bugger? Is this the same ( other than the 1K difference ) as the TI99/4A? Info on Memory Expansion Cartridges would be helpful.... Well, that seems to be about the extent of my questions for today... If I have sent these to the wrong message group, please let me know which ones to send to - I don't receive any TI or TRS bboards here. Thanx in advance for any / all info on these beasties.
