	TRS-80 Color Computer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Indeed the "80" in "TRS-80" stood for "Z-80".
		The Color Computer was a radical departure from the Z80-based TRS-80 Models I/II/III/4/4p with its Motorola MC6809E processor.
		Text display with real lowercase at 32, 40, 64, or 80 characters per line and between 16 and 24 lines per screen.

		The Tandy 2000 system was similar to the Texas Instrument PC-Clone in that it offered better graphics, a faster processor (80186) and higher capacity disk drives (80 track double sided 800k 5.25 drives).
		Originally, Tandy offered computers manufactured by Tandon Corporation, and then started producing their own line of systems.

		The Tandy TRS 80 model 1 was the first member of one of the most famous computer family.
		The Model1 was followed by the TRS 80 model II (a business computer) and model III which had almost the same characteristics as the model I. Tandy Radio Shack
		When it was connected to a floppy disk unit, the TRS-80 uses the TRS DOS operating system, it was pretty bugged and most of the TRS-80 users prefered NEW DOS, it was an operating system done by a third-party company called Apparat.

	System 80 Microcomputer Archive Site
		Although in terms of software, the System 80 was a (near-) TRS-80 Model 1 clone, it's appearance, interfaces and idiosyncrasies were unique enough to justify it's own place in the sun in terms of microcomputer history.
		This site is dedicated to the System 80, a TRS-80 Model 1 clone, popular in Australia and New Zealand in the early 1980's.
		Rather, these pages focus on the System 80 (aka Video Genie/PCM-80/81) and its culture in Australia and New Zealand, largely from my own memory, the assistance of other contributors, System-80 literature and the pages of Micro-80.

	System 80 - Origins
		The System 80 was a TRS-80 Model 1 clone, but it also had some evolutionary features which showed improvements over the Tandy computer.
		On every System 80 Machine (at least the four or five I have seen) there is a sticker on the bottom saying "BASIC Interpreter, Copyright (C) by Microsoft 1980, All Rights Reserved".
		The System 80 was announced as a product by DSE on September 1st, 1979.

	panopticist: My Sixth-Grade TRS-80 Speech, 1980
		The TRS-80 was an attempt by Tandy, Radio Shack's parent company, to enter the burgeoning home-computer market.
		It was a rickety, cheaply made little thing that totally earned its derisive nickname, "Trash 80." But I was fascinated by what it could do.
		Those were the days of Asteroids and Space Invaders; my friends and I were part of the first generation of children to grow up obsessed with videogames.

	Ah, TRS-80: Thanks for the memory
		He is Rick Hanson, and his vocation -- nay, obsession -- is the Tandy TRS- 80 Model 100 laptop, circa 1983.
		You could drop the so-called Trash 80, kick it around, spill scalding coffee on the keyboard, bang it with a closed fist when the journalistic muse wasn't cooperating, and it still would pop back on and do its very basic word processing.
		There's this guy in Pleasant Hill who has made a nice little niche and a name for himself in the wired world by almost single-handly keeping alive a dinosaur of a laptop that should be deep in the scrap heap of computer history by now.

	The Great TRS-80
		The biggest and best was 80 Micro, owned by one of the TRS-80’s legendary characters, Wayne Green, and published from Peterborough New Hampshire.
		The TRS-80 “community” was not located in one physical place and there was no cyberspace yet -- but we did have magazines that held us together.
		There were other TRS-80 publications too, mainly small black and white pubs like 80 US.

		Hi Alan (and the rest of the list), I have the technical manual for the Dick Smith System 80 Mk I and II.
		If you can't resurrect it and/or get bored of it, let me know, I'd be interested in this machine, it'd be an interesting challenge to repair it.

		Since the TRS-80 pocket computers are really re-badged Sharp pocket computers, the TRS-80 units work well with the Sharp peripherals.
		As the successor to the PC-1 and PC-2, the PC-3 is the smallest and lightest of the early TRS-80 pocket computers.
		It has a 24 characters-per-line thermal printer, a cassette input/output interface, and internal rechargeable batteries which also supply power to the computer, extending the life of the PC-3 batteries.

		Tony Duell has written utilities for formatting TRS-80 disks in an Intel Linux PC with a standard PC disk controller and copying.dsk images to them.
		Right now the utilities work only for standard double-density LDOS5/TRSDOS6/LS-DOS6 formats, 18 sectors/track, 256 bytes/sector, 40 or 80 tracks/side, and 1 or 2 sides.
		They are handy if you can't run xtrs (perhaps you don't have X on your Linux box) or you haven't gotten around to setting it up.

	TRS-80 Color Computer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Color Computer was a radical departure from the Z80-based TRS-80 Models I/II/III/4/4p with its Motorola MC6809E processor.
		The original version of the Color Computer shipped in a large silver-gray case with a calculator-like "chiclet keyboard," and was available with a memory sizes of 4K (26-3001), 16K (26-3002), or 32K (26-3003).
		This new model of the Color Computer line was meant to better compete with the Commodore Amiga and Atari ST systems.

	The TRS-80 Model II
		There was a thin bimonthly magazine, the Twelve/Sixteen, and the 80 Micro magazine had a Model II/12/16 column, and with every BASIC program it published there was a list of changes needed to get it to work on the Model II.
		RACET Computes sold a number of utilities for the Model II, so you had almost all the features of NewDOS/80 added to the Model II DOS.

		The TRS-80 name was also used for a pocket computer manufactured by Sharp Corporation for Tandy besides being the name of the TRS-80 personal computer.
		The TRS-80 Pocket Computer was programmable in BASIC, with a capacity of 1424 "program steps".

	TRS-80
		TRS-80 was also used for a line of Pocket Computers which were manufactured by Sharp or Casio, depending on the model.
		The Tandy 2000 system was similar to the Texas Instruments Professional Computer in that it offered better graphics, a faster processor (80186) and higher capacity disk drives (80 track double sided 800k 5.25 drives).
		Because the business systems were designed for work and not for home use, there is a lot less affection and nostalgia directed at them than at the Z-80 and Color Computer (Coco) systems.

	Home computer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		TRS-80 Color Computer II The home computer is a consumer-friendly word for the second generation of microcomputers (the technical term that was previously used), entering the market in 1977 and becoming common during the 1980s.
		Home computers were mostly based on 8-bit microprocessor technology, typically the MOS Technology 6502 or the Zilog Z80.
		A plethora of home computers came out during this period, but most failed to have a significant impact on the market or the history of home computing and as such are not mentioned (this includes machines not sold/known outside its home market).
