I've looked at one over at a frirnds house. It looks good. But remeber, your
stuck buying just about EVERYTHING from tandy. However for $2000 it isn't a
good deal, a 485 sx system from alot of places (25 mhz like tandy) are 
going for 1300 or less. Snd with that you'll get more memory, larger hard
drive and a better graphics card for $1300. Then just add a cd-rom and a
sound card and you'll probably save about $200. plus you'll save more in the 
long run because you wouldn't have to pay tandy to upgrade.
