the model 100 doesnt have a printer alas. as its kinda the ultimate in minimalist full sized keyboard computing. runs on 4 "AA" batteries. beat that nowadays lol
My Model 100 is still in use. For taking notes it has the fastest boot-up-time of any computer ever made, and that includes the latest ThinkPad coming out of hibernation mode. Couple that with a really nice keyboard, solid design, and a year or so battery life and you have pretty much the ultimate note-taker.
Good little system. Got me through a lot in life.

One year later... and it's pretty clear 81% were right.
Those were the last days of 4 digits.

Peter Schiff looks like a btc shill disguised as a troll. I wonder if that's intentional...

More like "if you do not lock down your country, ruin all your economy and ask us later for a billion loan that you and 2 generations after you have to pay us back for the next 100 years, then we will use our mass media to decline your leader as a dictator and start a revolution in your country".

I would think the outcome in most universes is underwhelming. There might be a price spike, but not much of anything, and I would even think we would see a sort of reverse effect. A "sell on the news" sort of event if you will. The Bitcoin price has already been acting a little friskily. And a cool off period would be reasonable.
I did hedge my bets in my bullish post.
But I do not take back the bullish sentiment. And I expect we might see it still!
Also, brace yourselves for the "Bitcoin in ES, a FAILURE" headlines...
OH, and if we go down much more then I might just join in the $30 buy.

my tandy model 4P (Z80 cpu, 2x 5.25 floppies, 128 megs ram bank switched) had a 1200 built in, as well as my tandy 100 "laptop" with its 300 baud <- that thing rocked, keyboard is still better than prolly 90% of the keyboards on anything today, laptop or desktop. excepting the original IBM keyboards. freakin tanks those things (they weigh more than some entire modern computers) and i still have a couple. retro build here i come 5.25 MFM hard drives for the win! well perhaps not but still..
CP/M, win3.11... dos 3.3 good times
I had no idea that Tandy was still producing TRS-80s up till that 90s. The 4P looks pretty sweet, did you actually use it as a luggable though? I wonder how many luggables were actually moved around. Now, the Model 100, that was sweet. I have its competitor, the Epson Hx-20, I don't use it as much as I should but I get it out several times. In fact, the embedded dot matrix printer is what I use to print my wallet seeds (encrypted of course). I keep wondering if I could ever get it to create them natively rather then me just typing them in.
yup lugged that sucker all over the place. man it was heavy. but its nice big screen (vs a kaypro i had, ugh), dual floppies, modem, spots to keep maybe 10 floppies safe in the case, decent kb, standard parallel printer port and the ability to use the extra bank switched 64k as a ramdisk made it pretty useful for that period of my life.

cant help but laugh at the "connect to the internet.. in MINUTES!" and today my main gear stays connected 24/7 lol
my external usr 56k couldnt ever manage full speed (crap POTS) but even 33.6 was magnitudes better than my 1st 300 baud for my c64, and later a 14.4 that you cradled the handset on the acoustic coupler.

I'm fairly certain that any shitcoiner which for sure includes that NFT bullshit would get quite a bit of backlash if attempted in this thread.. but hey, what do I know?
Liquid Network supports NFTs on Bitcoin. Ain't got time for no shitcoins.

Good morning Pacific Time Zener's
Well that's a good idea.. I have two accounts so I'm gonna buy $30 x 2 = $60 (it ain't nothing but honest work)
Well that's a good idea.. I have two accounts so I'm gonna buy $30 x 2 = $60 (it ain't nothing but honest work)
Well, why not... I was thinking about doing it too. But, as you say, $30 is too little. Maybe add a 0 or more depending on everyone's circumstances?
I'm in.
Well this $30 is not about the money but about bringing more people to bitcoin.
Also to me I think one person buying in bulk let say one person or entity buying $1million worth bitcoin or 10,000 people buying $100 each is more valuable and effective than a single entity.

i have a couple exchanges ill buy at. but i figure that ill do multiple individual $30 buys in a row on each. that way they stand out more. otherwise a single larger sum (even if multiples of 30) might get lost in the normal transactions. not that a large tx is bad but i want to make sure those multiple 30 dollar buys stand right out there.
edit prolly messed the quotes up sorry
edit2 mmmmm just in time for a dip too
