Subj: M100 W/BACKLIGHT

Hello Joe, it appears that your CAPS LOCK key is stuck.  I have never heard of
a m100 with a backlight; I don't believe that this option was ever sold or
supported by Tandy/Radio Shack.  Where have you seen this model?  If it is new,
perhaps the manufacturer still supports it.  :)
 
I hope you've had a chance to read the recent message I've posted about
Rick--although I agree with you that he is irreplaceable, some of his functions
CAN be delegated, including, particularly, answers to simple questions, such as
those of novices.  You can readily scan this message base and spend a
considerable amount of time learning about Rick by selecting only those
messages which eh wrote--you will learn that he would prefer that people scan
the message base before posting a FAQ (Frequently Asked Question).  As a new
user, you may not have been aware of some of the other sections of this BBS
which are accessible from the main menu--take a look now, if you haven't yet
done so, and you may be rewarded by browsing the TECHNICAL AREA.
 
In general, if a m100 class machine needs support, I believe that Dr. Tracy
Allen of EME Systems may be THE man to contact.  I believe he is a regular
member of this BBS, and I know that there are several messages describing him
and his service--looking up this data is left as an exercise to the reader.
;^)
 
[No, I'm not being unhelpful--I don't have the information at hand, and I'm
composing this response to you as soon as I read your message!  I really *do*
think that you can find the message without difficulty--if I am mistaken, just
post, and I'll perform the Subject search myself, and download the data into my
m100, editting it for the basis of a new message for YOU!
 
Welcome, once more, to Club 100.  I hope that you enjoy the services provided
here; I can tell that you appreciate Rick.  :o
