Tandy has announced several new machines this week:

  1000 TL/2  - an upgrade to the 1000 TL with an IDE connector.
  4000 SX    - 16 MHz 386SX with built in VGA and IDE $2599.
  4020 LX    - 20 MHz 386 with 1 MB of RAM            $3999.
  4025 LX    - 25 MHx 386 with 2 MB of RAM            $4999.
	       Both the LX models have the Intel 82385 memory cache
	       controller, IDE hard disk support, and VGA graphics.

  WP-2       - Imagine the model 102 an inch thinner with an 80 column by 8
	       line display.  Now put a word processor, 100,000 word spell
	       checker and 200,000 word thesaurus in ROM, and paint it
	       black so it looks snazzy.  Then add an optional disk drive
	       for saving files.  (Oh yeah, I forgot the telecom stuff).
	       all for a measley $349.95 before options.

  Lotus Spreadsheet for DeskMate - a $219.95 version of 123 version 2.01
	      that uses the DeskMate GUI. (O.K. I know this isn't a
	      machine, but I have to plug DeskMate somehow!)

  1400FD     - a flopply disk successor to the 1400, $1499.
  1400HD     - hard disk successor to the 1400 with a 20 Meg HD, $2499.

As I have yet to see many of the above, this information is gleaned from
press releases and subject to my poor eyesight and miserable typing.
