Subj: TS-DOS/BOOSTER PAK ORDER
Rick - I received the TS-DOS ROM shipment you sent. It works GREAT! Now I don't have to use TS-DOS from disk anymore. I was very hapily surprised to find out that even turning "DOS-ON" so that it can be used from BASIC, no RAM is allocated for the purpose.. I do have a question: The ad mentions a cold-start recovery program, but I've failed to find any such animal on the ROM, nor mention of it in the documentation. Is this a TRS-80 Model 100 exclusive feature? Just curious, as a cold-start recovery utility built into ROM is something I would really enjoy. Thanks, Gary. P.S. No hurry on the Booster-Pak. The Model 100 I'm going to be installing this on needs a new backup battery, as well as 24K more RAM. (It's only an 8K machine, and I'm fearing that the Booster-Pak won't operate with it unless it's brought up to 32K. Is this a true assumption?)
