Update (or a thinly veiled bump!): I was able to find a few of these tapes, but would still like a few more. I never would have guessed these things are so difficult to find. Thanks, and have a great weekend! J White

I didn't go to eBay to see what you are talking about as far as prices go. One thing I have noticed about their sold listings is that if it is a "buy it now" or best offer listing, they show the buy it now price, which might not necessarily be the best offer they accepted. As for these items...

In the index in the July '86 issue, there is this: Shewchuk, John B. “StarTrek." (1986, June) 50» — Game. Here;s a link to the magazine scan: https://archive.org/details/PortableComputingMagazineJun1986/page/n49/mode/2up In the July issues there is an index of the articles for the past year...

If you end up writing anything you're especially proud of, I am always on the prowl for software for my M100. Hint, hint :D J White

Glad it worked. If you hadn't thought of it, in the future you could hook your cassette cable on your Model 100 to the headphone jack of your PC, and not have to make a cassette copy anymore. J White

I've got the manual and binder listed on eBay right now, but no tape with it. Pretty sure it's the only one on eBay right now, so it shouldn't be hard to find. Alternatively, I am nearly certain there's a copy on Archive.org in .wav format with a pdf of the manual. J White

The drive won't really do anything until the computer tells it to. You might get just a very brief flash on the low battery light when turning it on or off, and you may feel the step motor jog the worm gear for a fraction of a second. I believe. there is software to allow it to be used with an...

Hey Birt! does great videos, and I am sure the one above will cover everything you'll need to know. But just in case... The belt almost certainly needs to be replaced. If you're lucky it is still intact and just severely stretched. If you're not lucky, the belt will have melted into goo all...

I just bought one of these A & J Microdrives to play with with my TRS-80 Model 100, so I was wanting to get some more tapes for it. I guess the mechanism is by BSR, and tapes from Rotronics (for Sinclair computers), Quick Data Drive (Commodore), and PhoneMark are supposedly all compatible. If...

TPDD 2 is sold.

Turns out that TPDD is actually a TPDD2, and it is pending...

I wasn't able to get a table at VCF Midwest (again), so here's some things I'd have on a table if they didn't sell out within minutes of opening. (this is not a complaint. It's awesome that the hobby has such a big following within an hour or two of me!) Everything was working last checked, and...

I'm trying to tidy up my computer room, and would like for this stuff to go. A few items I've tried to sell here before (can't figure out how to edit or delete prior posts?), and some are new to here. I'll send pics on request, but I'm guessing there's not enough interest to clog the page down...

Bump

This thread is nearly 10 years old; it's unlikely he still has any of those boards. Good luck on your search, and welcome to the VCF Forums! J White
