File Storage with an MP3 Player
NADSBox, Tape, Tandy Portable Disk Drives, REX, and Remem. There is many options for portable storage devices for the Model 100, but one may just be lying around your home.
What you need
Tandy Model 100 Cassette Cable
Standard, Vanilla MP3 Player (Peferably one with a MIC or line in port)

Storage W/ PC
1. Connect the cassette cable to your model 100, and the other end into the MIC port on your PC. 2. Load a program (I use Windows Movie Maker) that will capture sound from a MIC input and save it to a .WMA file. 3. Go into BASIC on the M-100 and type in "CSAVE "yourfile.xx"". DO NOT PRESS ENTER! 4. Press "record" on your pc, and "enter" on your Model 100. When the Model 100 shows the OK prompt, press "Stop" on your pc. 5. Save the WMA file to your computer. Make it something relevent to the file saved e.g. "yourfile.ba.wma" 6. Once you have done this for all of the files you want in your MP3 player, copy the files onto your MP3 player. 7. Goto "Loading files from your MP3 Player"
Storage W/O PC
1. Connect the cassette cable to your model 100, and the other end into the MIC port on your MP3 player. 2.
