-    text: Unbelievably, I actually have the original cardboard box for a TRS 80 model 4P that I recovered from my folks attic where it sat undisturbed for decades. The internal packing material is long gone, but the box itself is in very good shape. I was going to flatten it and recycle it unless someone wants it. Any takers?

-    text: My model 4P had double sided drives just like the 4D. I developed with it mostly in CP/M mode because it had the bigger market compared to the model 4.

-    text: Ahhh yes, the TRS-80 4P. I had one of these machines as my main computer in the mid/late 80''s. I used it to keep the books for my freelance software company as well as developed some software for it (mainly a Video renting system) in Model III mode. I have not-so-fond memeories of hauling this thing through various airports to make connecting flights. I think the only thing that made it portable was the handle in the case lol. It was seriously a very heavy ''portable'' machine.
