eBay Episode 14 – Radio Shack TRS-80 Model 100, Toshiba T1100 and Data General One

The History of Personal Computing

TRS-80 Model 100

This is the podcast where we take an informal look at personal computing history through the lens of eBay auctions. It’s sort of like Antiques Roadshow, but all about antique personal computers. On today’s show, we’re continuing our coverage of the second phase of portables, the earliest laptops. We’re covering the Radio Shack TRS-80 Model 100, Toshiba T1100 and Data General One.
