K.... So I have to take all data off of the BP before installing the chip. Not a problem. I simply do a back up (F-SomethingOrOther) and then I can get it all back with no hassle. I'd say once I had the UR II that I would have everything I need for my Model 100. I will have to check the catalog and see about an order. I guess if that guy sent me a tape version and yours is on the ROM, then you prolly have the latest version? That means ... nothing really, as the last version is still prolly around 10 years old. Imagine if Tandy and others were still supporting this beast. I wonder what advancements may have been made by now. Ah well, no use dreaming. I wrote some proceedings once for a national conference... In fact it was just last year; the 1995 conference. I made sure to mention the Model 100. Not sure if I mentioned Club 100 or not. Have to check on that. I don't know if you are aware (I think I told you this some time ago) the Model 100 has a major following in the disability community. Because of the size, ease of use, and the fact that the keys are big and set apart from each other, people with disabilities tend to gravitate toward it. I have met many in my advocacy travels and tours who have one. They usually have 32k and a PDD with it, but little else. I will order a ROM here within the next month or so. :) stc
