Hi everyone,

I went digging through my storage shed the other day and found my working T/S 1000, complete with 16K RAM pack. Don't know what I'll do with it. I used to have a C64 and a CoCo 2, but I had to sell the C64 and the CoCo 2 was stolen.

I taught myself BASIC on that CoCo 2 then went into more adventures on the C64.

Those were good days...

What, no love for the T/S 1000? Yeah, me neither. I bought it 'cause it was the cheapest I could afford at the time. But thanks to that migrain...er, membrane keyboard and its four-function keys, I quickly yearned for something better.

It was a gift so I did what I could but even at my young age, that membrane keyboard was terrible. I believe I got the CoCo 2 next in 1984. I have used the "ovcc" emulator for the CoCo and it works great but it's not the same thing as having the physical computer.

I might donate the T/S 1000 to a computer museum. I have the original manual that came with the T/S 1000 so that might be worth something.
