The Tandy 100, whose design inspired this machine, was very popular among journalists as a note taking machine.

Yeah, I saw a reporter typing up a sports story on a TRS-80 Model 100 in a Wendy's in San Mateo in 01996, 13 years after the machine's release. I think it had been discontinued for many years at that point.

They're still around but I haven't seen one since then.
