I still have a Tandy 4000, 386-16 no cache, that is used occassionally to program EPROMS. This same machine ran Xenix for years before being abused by installing DR-DOS on it.
For shame, for shame! You should have known better! ;-)
Regardless, I was getting readdy to discard these when I saw your post. If you need some spares, I've got 1 each 360KB and 1.2MB 5.25" floppy drives that still worked last I used them. One might have come out of a TRS-80 I had when they were a "hot" item - I'm not sure. Also a box full of media for them (a couple hundred?) untested but some may still work.
Let me know. I really hate throwing away something, that's still perfectly useful, just because the world has passed it by. Hmm ... might be something empathetic in that.
I have a Radio Shack Model 100, the first laptop, in the closet beside an HP-97 programmable calculator.
