Subj: NEC 8021 BLUES

I have an NEC 8021 and I am verry happy I have found your board. It seems that
this breed of cpmputer has been neglected in todays world of technology. I am
wondering what model of Tandy is the NEC 8021 compatible to? Is it a 100, 102,
200 or some other beast altogether? Can the peripherals be used
interchangeably? I have aquired a "Tandy Portable DIsk Dirve 2" form Radio
Shack, beleive it or not in 1994? I was wondering can I connect this to the NEC
8021? I have only the drive, no cables, disks, or manuals. Do you have any
advice as to how I should proceed? I am experienced in the IBM clone-world of
computers and have experience dating back to the commodore PET. I still have my
TRS-80 model 1, and My CoCo 2. Both resting happily in the closet for that day
when I define a use for them. I would really like to be able to use the disk
drive with the NEC PC 8021A. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I will call
back in a few days. Thank you in advance for your help. Adam Lipsius
