They don't sell any Tandy technical manuals. There are no book catalog available either. Does anybody know where to obtain Tandy technical books? Interestingly enough, I found at the corner of the Tandy store, there are a few books on the shelf, among which is the book "Tandy Graphics and Sound". It was published in 1987 and so outdated that it doesn't cover SL and TL at all. And the salemen know almost nothing about Tandy computers. This so-call "America's Technology store". >or if you are just interested in the 3-voice sound, there are a number o >books that cover the PC-JR sound, and it applies to ALL 1000 type machines ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ PC-JR is out of place now. As for color, SL and TL are 640x200x16, but PC-JR is 640x200x4. For sound, you can not really play good quality sound if you don't have D/A. >from Tandy > >Mike Yetsko > (formerly with Tandy)
