Dear Frank, I took the simpler approach with my KYO85, and replaced its ROM with a M100 ROM. Now the KYO thinks it is for all practical purposes an M100, and all M100 programs, even .CO programs, run fine on it. Of course there is no modem or BCR. And I take that back; a couple of programs have had a glitch or two, but rarely. I can use a 256k rampac on the kyo, although I can't use the extRAM or XR4. Obviously, this modification is not something that I could sell, i.e., copy the ROM. But keep your eye out for a trashed M100. It is very easy to unplug the ROM and stick a new one in its place. -- Tracy
