    My Update Log

    Sweet! The title of your book sounds interesting anyway. How will you publish it, PDF? What's the book about, generally? Or is that secret until publishing time? Yeah, the old keyboards were so nice to type long things on. My modern laptop has probably the crummiest keyboard known to man, but I...

    Chris68k's update log.

    Sweet idea! Welcome to the Model T club. A few of us around here using them for the challenge, it's quite fun. Teeny is no good on the M-10 huh? That stinks. There are other methods of file transfer though, like converting the .BA to a .DO and doing a file transfer in ASCII through the serial port.

    Retro-Rocket 08 demo

    Here is a hint- don't type it in. Transfer it over with a null modem cable. I built one, it works wonders. EDIT: that's why I wanted to be able to post with an attachment- the .BA file would be much easier to transfer. Also- there are special encoded characters in that code which did not...

    Retro-Rocket 08 demo

    Alright, the main reason for this post is to have a place to host the files/code for my Retro-rocket '08 demo for the Tandy 102. If a sysop could give me permission to post the .BA file that would be great, in the mean time here is my ASCII code, which can be transmitted to the Tandy 102 and...

    Tandy 100/102 in '08 Challenge

    Gee conceitedjerk, that's alot of money! I have spent $150 in the last year on retro hardware. That includes my new Lantronix MSS-VIA that I bought on ebay for $35, and my Tandy 102 which I bought for taking notes at school for the princely sum of $25. Look up "Lantronix server" or "Lantronix...

    BBS terminal types?

    Well, I am referring specifically to the RetroChallenge BBS. I noticed a menu where you could type in a different terminal type than VT100- what other things can be typed in there for different terminal types?

    BBS terminal types?

    Umm... I know people have gotten all tied up about the retrochallenge around here (and that's good) but in order to participate without a heap of hassle I kinda would like an answer to my question: does anyone know (BBS Sysop?) what kids of terminals the BBS can deal with other than the default...

    BBS terminal types?

    I noticed that the BBS seems to support multiple terminal types. What types, other than vt100, are supported? Specifically, is there Tandy 100 or Tandy 102 support? If so I'd really like to use that instead of my clunky vt100 emulation, which only lets me look at 1/6 of the screen at one time...

    When's the new chalenge coming up?

    Also on the horizon for me- I discovered Minix 3. If you don't know what it is, don't worry, it's not another Linux clone. Linux is a clone of Minix. :b&w: Yeah, it's basically the coolest. Linux-like system, Lynx 2 web browsing, Pine email, word processing, and most importantly TELNET...

    When's the new chalenge coming up?

    Thanks everybody. I got a pair of 102's for some buddies of mine, which I rebuilt last week. They are now being used to take class notes. I guess it's not just me who's using these things on a regular basis. BTW, I figured I'd let the secret out- I'm going to use a UDS to connect to the web. I...

    When's the new chalenge coming up?

    Hey all! I'm new here, but I have followed the last RetroChallenge with much interest. I was wondering when the next one is. I have a blog set up for the purpose of retro things, and I've begun to post things there because it's March and this month is the 25th Anniversary of my favorite retro...
