Rumor has it that John Rollins may have mentioned these words:

Sure do! Hop over to
http://www.the-dock.com/club100.html and say howdy to
prolly the foremost person on the Model 100/102/200 scene, Rick Hanson.
He's one heckuva nice guy, and keeps a lot of TRS-80 stuff in stock, not to
mention most (if not all) of the proggies from his old BBS site on the web,
available for download. (I'm not sure, but I *think* his BBS is still
running, so you can actually still dial to it with your M100, if you like! ;-)
He sells personally refurbished Model 100's & 102's, for a very good price
& warrants them for 90 days. Check out
http://www.the-dock.com/c100/recon.html if you want to see pictures of his
refurbishing process - very helpful if you've ever had to split a Model 100.
He also has a lot of help dox available as well... IIRC it's called "The
Whole Enchalada" (sp?)... More info than you can shake a stick at...
Tell him "Merch" sent you...
<ShamelessPlug>
Also, there's a mailing list devoted to the Model 100/102/200 machines (I
have a 200 myself...) and to sign up, send an empty email here:
m100-subscribe_at_list.30below.com
and reply to the confirmation message.
I run the list, so if you have any questions, please feel free to email me
personally...
Oh, BTW - There's over 160 subscribers to this list, so that shows that the
Model 100 is still alive and kicking over 15 years later... :-) :-)

Hope this helps,
