FS: TRS-80 Model 100 computer + extras

I believe the one I have is 32k. When it boots, it shows roughly 29000 bytes free. The expansion port is empty though, so I was a little confused. From what I have read, 32k was not a factory option on the m100.

The numbers don't lie though.

pmc:
Yah, that's a 32K model which is fairly uncommon. The memory is socket mounted inside the case on the motherboard (it doesn't go in the expansion bay). There are 4 chips of 8K each installed in there. You either have a very late factory model, or someone upgraded it.

It's strangly nice to be able to talk about simple 8-bit bytes again. :)

Man I wish people would just go ahead and bid! There are 16 watchers right now, but everyone is waiting to snipe. I hope someone puts in a ridiculous proxy at the end so all of the other snipes drive it to the max.  ;D

It ends tonight, so I think I'll just try to forget about it until tommorrow morning.

pmc:
I always snipe. I was sniped way too many times before I started sniping myself. Then I started to get pretty good prices on things. So I started sniping for everything and never looked back. I usually set a fairly low (but reasonbly fair) snipe price and then use it for multiple auctions until I get one.

But to be honest, I've become more a "Buy it now" kind of guy because I tire of these games.

Considering the huge amount of RAM in your Model-100, and the disk drive included, I'd think you'll come out OK (whatever OK is).
