What Kind of Model 100 or Tandy 102 do You Have?
Model 100
The first M100s were released with a custom ROM pinout, in agreement with the published schematic. Over time, Radio Shack changed the design to use standard ROMs.
This is the way the T102 and T200 were designed. The later M100s do not agree with the published schematic. This causes an issue for anyone who wants to make something that plugs into the ROM socket! M100s have a code on their ROM chips, as well as in the silkscreen on the PCB. Below is a list of known ROM codes, and the boards they go into. Partial list of M100 PCB and ROM codes
