I am outraged that Mr. Roehl can so easily throw away a year of my work by
spreading the misinformed lie that Tandy doesn't make the Model 2000.  I
spent two months at a Tandy factory (after ten months of intensive design 
and debug) in Fort Worth teaching them about the machine so that they could 
build it here in Texas. The 2000 was *entirely* designed and built by Tandy.  

I once read that one man speaks a falsehood and one hundred men repeat it 
as true.
