   Tandy 5000MC emerges from shadows

   From: ohland@charter.net   
      
       I got the 5000MC technical Reference from M.A.D. Software down in   
   Texas. I was surprised, PCB artwork included as well.

       There is some confusion in my mind on what the logic is for most of   
   the jumpers used for setting memory. They hook up to RAS and CAS ports.   
      
   Outlines and chip IDs done for planar, CPU, and memory boards. I do NOT   
   have the refdisk yet. The seller of the tech ref used to develop for the   
   5000MC, and he might have the image somewhere. He's looking.   
      
   I have some detail on S2, which sets 2 or 8MB board, LIM, 256/1M.   
      
   Now all we need is the refdisk to become dangerous.   
      
   Serial port is limited to 19.2K, the DMA control lines to the NS16550A   
   were not connected. Video mem is 256K, max colors is 256.
