Oh the memories of the !!@# 16k TS1000 memory pack crashing the system.
Eventually I ended up getting a full sized non-intelligent keyboard
interfaced. If you "mounted" the TS1000 to something hard, like a board,
this problem went away. I also had a TRS80 model one, so I was use to
crashes. Very fond memories of that era. Sometimes less is more.
