I have discovered last night that Tim Mann years ago has been developping
software for the TRS-80 (my first computer). He was in the LDOS team, an
operating system I have used almost 20 years ago!!!

Now he is still active in the world of TRS-80 emulators.

When I have some time I will try one of these emulators. Maybe in 20 years...
