Needed: Tandy 2000 manuals

So did the Mindset, Northstar Dimension and Televideo Personal Mini (early file servers or something), Burroughs ICON (also available from Xerox IIRC), and maybe more. The earliest Orchid PC-Turbos had a '186, and if you look it up they were awarded some kind of patent for their toils. My Vermont Microsystems PGA clone has an 80188. There was some buzz back when that the Peanut was going to have an 80186. Perhaps that was just media speculation. I'd have to look over the tech manual again, but I was of the persuasion the T2K though sported an 80186, it ignored the integrated peripherals. The use or non-use of the integrated peripherals weren't it's biggest problems (duh like those SMC crt chips don't gum up the works). There was some talk on google groups recently where it was said there were subtle differences between the way the '186 executed instructions, and apparently wasn't 100% object code compatible with the 8086. Timing differences? Don't know. Maybe someone can confirm or deny. And if you wanted something even more peecee comp- atible then that, you copied actual peecee roms and plugged them in. I remember one of Dvorak's columns way back in PEECEE magazine complaining how the Canadians did alot of this. LOL no offence to my friends north of the border. I'm just telling you what he said. O man is I in trouble... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
