Many of us got our start in computers through a joint venture between Tandy and Radio Shack stores, the TRS-80. Joe Pasqua relives those days with a 40%-scale replica he built using 3D printing and a Raspberry Pi to emulate the ancient operating system. It even includes a cutout for a working keyboard and trackpad.
Pasqua designed the project to capture the feel of the TRS-80 Model 3 or Model 4 but acknowledges it’s not a replica. Instead, he’s incorporated his favorite aspects of each into the design. The project bears the most resemblance, cosmetically, to the TRS-80 Model 4.
