Greetings.  Does anyone out there have any experience with the new
Tandy 200 portable?  It appears to resemble the 100 but have twice
the number of 40 char display lines.  While I'd rather have an
80 X 24 or 25 char screen, they are still far too expensive to
be reasonable, as far as I can tell.  The 200 is listed at $999
with 24K--presumably it could be expanded up to the seventy-something K
max less expensively by buying the chips from someone other than Tandy.

Does anyone have any info about low level programming for the unit?
I'm not interested in their included BASIC, of course.  In general,
any information about the functionality and programmability of the
200 would be appreciated.  Thanks much.
