Welcome to David Keil's
TRS-80/Tandy Computer Emulator Pages
Last updated April 8, 2005

Introduction: 

These emulators are written in 80486+ assembly language and require a Pentium compatible processor.  The front-end is written in C++ to provide a user friendly interface. All the TRS-80 emulation runs in assembly language for maximum speed. The start-up, configuration and virtual media selection screens are written in C++. 

These programs emulate the TRS-80 Model 1, Model III/4/4P, Color Computer 1/2 & Color Computer 3. These microcomputers were popular in the 1980s. The emulators all function exactly like the real thing, including the ability to read and write real TRS-80 disks & cassettes.

These emulators are the result of hundreds of hours of programming and debugging. Your contributions and comments help justify the time spent writing it and encourage me to continue updating and adding new hardware support for them.
