Subject: Re: Scott Adams adventures wanted

If you have a PC you can run the Newdos80 Scott Adams adventures using
the Pc-Three TRS80 Model III emulator from Hypersoft (PO Box 51155, Raleigh,
NC 27609). However, it's not cheap (around 100 dollars or more). You will
also need a double-density, legal, MIII Newdos80 system disk (PC Three can't
read SD). Newdos80 is not CP/M compatible. There may be a further problem:
some of the Scott Adams adventures for the TRS-80 were distributed on tape,
but you could run them from a Newdos80 disk by using Apparat's LMOFFSET
program. A game doctored in this way for a TRS-80 Model I won't necessarily
work on a Model III (and thus on the emulator). A genuine disk version
should be OK. I have one (demo) SA adventure for the Model III, and would
be glad to hear from anyone wanting to give away unused copies of others.
 
I've had to sign off this list, so won't be around to receive comments.
 
(I wish there was a list for TRS-80 users, but I've never found one on the net.
)
