    Anyone still a user of this great little 8-bit beauty?

    I still have my TRS-80 Model III. The one with the dual
    floppy drives and monochrome monitor.

    platform - Mattel Intellivision. Bv)=

    I have a 30 year old Colecovision with a cart that lets me
    run rom's. So every game ever made. ;) Believe it or not some
    people are STILL making games for these!!!

    Andrea and I play the Coleco more then any other console in the
    house.

    I still have my TRS-80 Model III. The one with the dual
    floppy drives and monochrome monitor.

    I have a TRS-80 Model I with 48K in the keyboard in my storage
    locker. Along with that is a Mod III with some 412K installed.

    And a Timex Sinclair TS 1000 with 48K ram.

    Someday...maybe...

    They were cool computers IMO.

    Agreed. And, as a hardware type, I could do things to them, at
    the mother board level. I do on my current computers, but only
    at the interchangeable part level.
