I pulled out the motherboard on that Tandy 6000 from my church's school...
It had a big ol' MC68000 processor on it!  So, evidently the jerk^H^H^H^Hguy
from Tandy I talked to on the phone (who said it was an 8086) is clueless.

So!  Now I'm *really* interested... I'd like to get the doc's and disks
(yes, 8-inch floppies <sigh>) to get this monster up and running Tandy Xenix
(which, I gather, is what it was originally supposed to run).  Does anyone
have these doc's and/or disks laying around? or *know* of anyone who *might*?
