WTB: TRS-80 stuff. - test-drb@ccmp.vtda.org

5 Sep 1998

That wasn't my problem.  I really don't care about the date.  The problem
is, when I typed the date, NOTHING happened, because the keyboard was
gummed up.  I normally just type 11/11/11 at the date prompt, anyway.

 Jason, I think the problem is that the original version of TRSDOS you are using
...
  will not accept a date after 1989.
 As you say it boots fine to a date prompt..
 You will need to get LDOS to correct this funny flaw in the operating system.
...
  Guess They never expected them to be around so long..
 But it sound like you have it working..

 Phil...
