Model 100, again

You will get 1, maybe two twists on each before they break. These tabs must be *firmly* twisted to gain enough pressure on the LCD for the pressure sensitive glass contacts to work. I had a badly misaligned T200 display that I attempted to realign... realignment is not as easy as it would seem, and yet on my 3rd attempt it was *perfectly* aligned. I had all of the tabs twisted back with decent pressure and it was still holding... then, alas, the *last* tab broke, and it was close to a corner, easily wiping out 10-15% of the display. It was already a lost cause so there was nothing to lose, but I speak from experience -- it's tough to bring these LCD's back from the dead. If anyone needs more support on T100/102/200's, I run a listserver that can be e-mailed at m100(a)list.northernway.net...

Put the word help in the *** Subject *** line of the message, mail it to m100-request(a)list.northernway.net and a helpful message will be return-emailed to you. Still to hard? If you have a forms-capable browser, point it to: http://home.northernway.net/~zmerch/signupform.html and you can subscribe thru the web. Interested in Tandy 600's? I have a listserver at m600(a)list.northernway.net as well... replace a 1 with a 6 above and all of the above instructions will work. http://home.northernway.net/~zmerch/signupm600.html See you there!
