Just a few weeks in the past, I wrote about Adrian from Adrian’s Digital Basement exploration of a weird TRS-80 “repack” he was given by a pal.
Inside what seemed to be a TRS-80 Mannequin 4, Adrian discovered Mannequin 3 components and an affordable TV set! He was additionally given a CoCo motherboard that the proprietor thought might need initially been inside. Adrian was capable of decide that the motherboard had certainly been inside this Frankenstein repack.
Adrian’s been within the strategy of repairing the broken motherboard and placing the repack again collectively into it’s unique TRS-80 Mannequin 3/4/CoCo mash-up kind.
