While digging thru my storage locker for some other things, I stumbled across a pair of these. One had the drive removed (as I recall RS had the ounit on...
please don't do that, i have a 1000ex that would benefit from having a 3.5inch external drive, what is your asking price? i get paid this coming friday...

Great Job guys! Thanks a lot for uploading this informative book in pdf format. ... http://rapidshare.com/files/242848370/Upgrading_and_Repairing_Your_Tandy\ ...
... I listed them. Starting price $10. No takers. And one email from someone here lamenting the high proces on eBay and asking me not to list them there. -- ...
thats not surprising really, and i just got my hands on a mfd-63w-70d 3.5 floppy out of a tandy, i have to look up specs but i'm sure it's 720, all i need to...
... Heck, if you'd bid on the driveless enclosure I offered, you'd just have to plug it in and dig up a ribbon cable. :-) -- Leonard Erickson (aka shadow) ...
ehhh, never been a big fan of e-bay, i've also run into a problem with it, i'm not sure if the cable is a different pinout or what, it's got a 4-pin power...
... Do recall that the card edge on the back of the EX/HX has *power* (for the drive) on pins that are normally unused. So if you don't have the odd little...
An interesting thread on comp.sys.tandy http://groups.google.com/group/comp.sys.tandy/browse_thread/thread/dfe70937cc57a3e7?hl=en The makers' site is in...
On Sat, 13 Jun 2009 11:38:49 -0700 (PDT), If you want to know just ask ... The internal 3.5" floppy drives for the HX have +5v & +12v power over the 34pin...
hence there in the problem, i don't have the enclosure, and the drive is already fitted to a 5.25 inch bay adapter. i get paid friday i'd be tempted to send...
... Well, there's not that much to it. Only thing is, you *really* need to have a keyed ribbon cable as plugging it in upside down is bad. Other than the drive...
hmm, one more question, the 720k i have. it's fitted to an bay adapter already, it's also got a 5.25 inch face place, the plate is designed for the drive...
I know it isn't a 1000, but a 3000 was an AT clone, very sturdy, and was extremely upgradeable. Shipping is HIGH, especially if you want the EGA monitor. I am...
I see the auction just ended, it went for only $9.99 plus shipping - good deal. There seem to still be more 286s around than 386s or 8088s. Yeah, it will...
Thankfully a good deal indeed...shipping to me is going to run $25. :-) Now I just have to decide (and quickly) if it's worth another $25 to ship the...
... Unless you have a multisynch monitor, or have the right sort of old monitor, it might be a good idea. -- Leonard Erickson (aka shadow) shadow at shadowgard...
Thanks for everyone's input...I did go ahead and pay to have the monitor shipped too. I'm hoping it all arrives ok, I'm a little leery of his description of...
I relisted the one complete unit and the one that just needs a drive on ebay. Only a couple of watchers and no bos. A bit over 2 days to go. -- Leonard...
Anyone have a contact for TVDog that works? I've been trying to connect to the ftp archive to get a techref and it hasn't responded in 48 hours now. Email to...
I had gotten my hands on a 1000hx that passed on, and thought why not adapt the top of it to the 1000ex, thing is the EX can't power the floppy drives through...
Anybody know what the difference between the Tandy 1000 and 1000A is? I finally added a 1000 to my collection, but it's actually 1000A. Just curious what the...
Not sure really, it may be comparable to the differences between the IBM pc and the IBM pc-xt, technological improvements, abandoment of obsolete features,...
