TRS-80 Model lll: _Something Something Cool Name_

I got my hands on a Radio Shack TRS-80 Model lll with an intact CRT. I still need to test the monitor but more on that down the road. For now the important thing is I am going to bring life back into this relic with modern hardware and making the case even sexier. I'm going to make an attempt to save the original keys and put them on the keyboard I am replacing the original with, obviously they aren't exactly standard MX keycaps but I think I can do surgery on them.

I suggested a linux powered robot beaver, but it was after he announced the premise of his project.

[Goalkeeper]

Ahhhh. I thought Bryan came up with the idea after.

I was thinking "what's Bryan doing stalking our community?".

It would be cool if he were to be part of the community. He seems to be well respected here.
