You +can still use other ROMs by editing the config file or using the +emulator's user interface. + +The copyright status of these ROM images is murky, but they've been +widely available on the 'net since the 1990s. If you own the original +TRS-80 computers, you probably can legally use the ROM images, +depending on the laws where you live. + +There is a nice archive of TRS-80 Model I software available here: +https://www.classic-computers.org.nz/system-80/software_archive.htm |
