I've heard John Oliger's stuff is quite good.
A friend had his TS-1000 all tricked out with a John
Oliger Disk Interface, Parallel Port, Color Graphics
Interface, Joystick Interface and more...
It cost more than an IBM XT did at that time.
We used to tease him about the "Tail Wagging the dog".
But, he was quite happy with it all.
When I worked for Zebra Systems, we were going to
carry John's stuff. We went out of the Timex Market
before that happened though.
