TRS-80 DT-1 Refurb Pt2: Cleaning and Testing | #SepTandy
2,021And now for the thrilling conclusion! Getting the DT-1 cleaned up and seeing if I can get it working!
I really like this thing, in a way it's the perfect vintage "computer". It looks awesome, it's easy to use, and I can do tons of stuff on it through Linux without fussing with writing disk images or tracking down software. It Just Works (tm). Of course it isn't a vintage experience when you're using Linux, but the frontend you get is amazing.
There will be more on this in the future! I've already made some...modifications... that make it much more usable. And I want to go more in depth on setting up an old terminal with Linux.
