Incase any of you out there are taken in by Tandy's advertising, like
my wife was, I thought I'd pass on a warning.

Tandy has just marketed their 1000 RLX (10 mhz, 80286, 40mb, vga 3.5-1.44 &
Mouse)  for 1199.95 + monitor.  But here's the real story.
	1. Ram >640 is "shadow ram"
	2. Processor is 80286 but bus is 8 bits
	3. To use a mouse in windows;
		a. remove pretty little bus mouse provided with machine
		b. place in nearest circular file
		c. install logitec serial mouse.
     Tandy still hasn't got the message.    
     My wife did :-\
