As I briefly suggested in the latest edition of TRS8BIT, if there is anyone out there, in the U.K., who can offer a Tandy hardware repair service please contact me and I'll
setup an additional page in the website with their contact details. I'm currently helping Mav, in Australia, get his hands on a 15 Mb Tandy Hard Drive. As you can
probably guess though, the postage costs are most prohibitive to say the least! Mind you, this little escapade has the makings of a very interesting article for TRS8BIT!

Matthew Reed has released various upgrades to TRSTOOLS, and his TRSREAD and TRSWRITE programs. I was sorry to find that the latest version of TRSTOOLS
doesn't run on Windows ME. It's no good, I'm just gonna have to bit the bullet and move on and up eh!

|
Don't forget, the latest, December 2011 edition of the Newsletter is available from the downloads page. I've tried to find something for everyone, I hope! I've already
received 2 articles for the next (March 2012) edition. So if you fancy sending in an article, it's never too early!

There is still no further news regarding Frank Cervenka's Android App, DroidTRS, or getting the Aculab Floppy Tape to run on Matthew's emulator. But keep watching this
space, and as soon as I hear anything, I'll post details here.

As always, indexes for NATGUG News, TRSTIMES, 80-US and 80-Microcomputing, together with back issues of TRS8BIT are still available. Index down-loads are
'ZIP' files. The index(es) contain 2 copies. The first as a Microsoft Works database file *.wdb and the second as comma separated values file*.csv. All TRS8BIT's are
.PDF files.

If you encounter any problems downloading, or if, like me, you would prefer to received a hard-copy, A4 booklet version of the newsletter in the post, please email me. I
still can't get my head 'round' reading off a monitor! It just doesn't seem as comfortable as having a piece of paper in your hand. I can't decide if it's something to do
with age, turning pages or the enjoyment of reading at the table while eating, (even though Dee keeps telling me it's very rude)!

As always, Peter Stone is available for Z80 assembler support, or just general Tandy related chit-chat. You can contact him at peter_stone45 @ hotmail.com.
