I own a Rainbow 100(a) with 256K of memory, and using MS-DOS 2.05.
Recently I obtained a copy of BinkleyTerm, and it states in the docs.
that it needs DOS 2.10 at least.  Does anyone have a 	copy they would
be willing sell, as when we try to use Binkley it crashes.
What is the name of the company that sells Code Blue and the later
versions of DOS etc.?  Could someone please also give us their (postal)
address?
A few other questions-
The memory expander board in the RB is for a 100B.  The chips are marked
4864.  To upgrade the memory, do I replace these with 48256's?
Also, can you just upgrade one bank at a time, or do you need to replace
them all?
I also am looking for a Graphics board, and for a Hard Drive controller.
I have a 10Mb disk gathering dust, and I want to get it operational
again.
A friend and I a interested in setting up a BBS.  We have heard that
Fido and Opus will work on a Rainbow.  Can anyone confirm/deny this?  If
it is true, then could you tell us if we need any extra software?
