In 1982, Radio Shack sold it for $2495 + tax. There are many things that it can't do
that more modern computers will, but it will do word processing, database, spreadsheet,
communication, educational programs, games, etc, but not the internet.

Subject: TRS-80 Model III ???????
I have the opportunity to purchase a TRS-80 Model III computer. It looks
very good, has two 5-1/4" floppies and (she says) worked the last time it
was turned on.
She is asking $50.
Is that a fair price?
What should it be worth?
