I seem to have acquired a Tandy 1400FD for peanuts.  This makes it an only
slightly overpriced purchase.  However, all that notwithstanding, is it
possible to get a hard disk upgrade for this puppy out there?  Radio Shack
lists it as costing $1000 in their catalog, but since I beleive the 1400
series is being discontinued (has been discontinued?) I don't expect this
would do me any good even if I was willing to play $1k for it, which I
feel is a little pricey.

Are their 3rd party disks, or is there something I can install on my own?
Where would I look for such a thing?  Or am I really SOL, and bought a
portable terminal that only looks like a really slow PC.... :)

Any suggestions (polite or otherwide, except "HA ha ha ha") would be
really welcome.  Thanks!
