I own a ****ing MAC True, TRS-80s are a little classier than a Mac, but serious technophiles should try to get hold of one. I hear that you can purchase them used, so maybe that would be a viable option for you. Once you have experienced the awesome power of a screaming, 4.77 MHz Z80 processor, you will never go back. TRS-80s rule, Dude.

BUZZZZZZZZ! Wrong answer! We were looking for "1.77" Mhz.

The Model 1 was 1.77 Mhz, the Model 2 was 4 Mhz, the Model 3 was 2 Mhz,
the Model 4 was 4 Mhz.

But thanks for playing!

Perhaps the Radio Shack model had the quoted speeds, but others went a
step further...

I personally preferred the 6502.
