[PROJECT] TRS-80 Black and Green


Recommended Posts

 For quite some time I have been wanting to create a TRS-80 just for me.

So I started with a TRS-80 Model 3 case skin set
- Repainted shiny Black
- Installed a Model 4 TRS-80 Motherboard, FDC and RS232C
- 128 Kb of Ram (to be upgraded later to 384K)
- Installed a"Langley St-Claire" Green CRT
- Two half-height floppy drives "JU455" (360k) from Panasonic with full faceplates
- changed as many keys on the keyboard to be as black as possible

Starting to look like this:

But continuing on the "Black and Green Theme", I started adding Green LEDs under the keyboard

Other things still to be done or considered:

- Green LEf Lighting of the underside of the case
- High-resolution Graphics card
- Matching External FREHD + Gotek unit
- Two Speakers of 3 Watts, and Amplifier mounted internally with earplug jack and volume control.
(Possibly) Orchestra 90 Music Card
(Possibly) TTKL to VGA Video card with external connector to plug in VGA Monitor.
