| 2K Express | EDIT This is being typed on WORD SYNC II by Gesang Associates – a word processor for the ZX-81/TS1000 series. Hopefully they’ll produce one shortly for the 2068, this is great. I’m using the large type format as it eats up space faster. See me for address on how to order. | |
| POKE by Paul | The April meeting was well attended and much accomplished in short order. The dues are now $8 per year for all members, effective immediately. The dues shall be paid once a year. Current members will have dues pro-rated to the new rate. | |
| The Brick Wall In Your Computer, Part 2 | Last time we found that every BASIC for every computer contains a “brick wall” that can prevent the computer from doing what you want. Since the wall is different for every computer, we concentrated on the TS1000 and we found a couple of places where we could “smash into it”. | Timex/Sinclair 1000, Timex/Sinclair 2068 |
| Timex 2068/Epson RX80 | Using my new Timex 2068 for about a week before the April Sincus meeting I was very impressed with the new basic commands which were not available on the T/S 1000 and the keyboard was a great improvement for my “fumbling fingers”, however I was itching to get my printer attached to the expansion slot. | Timex/Sinclair 2068 |
| Timexly Tips | As I write this, I have in front of me the silver colored pamphlet that came with my ZX-81 kit a long time ago. It’s titled “Sinclair ZX-81 Software Catalog, do any of you old-timers remember it? | Timex/Sinclair 1000, Timex/Sinclair 2068, Type-in program |
| Useful Programs? | If you’re like me, useing the computer means doing something useful with it. That is, if I’m going to write a program, it must be something useful or I’m learning something from the experience. Over the years I’ve been able to come up with two short programs that meet these criteria. | Timex/Sinclair 1000, Type-in program |
