I have a friend who want to buy his first PC.  He's really zeroed
in on the stuff from Radio Shack.  Is it really any good?  How
compatible is it?  They have all the software in their catalog
at rather spendy prices, can he buy software from the local
software shops?  There's several good compatibles on the market,
how's the bang for the buck on the Tandy stuff?  Have you had in
problems with getting the Tandy/Radio Shack stores to stand behind
their equipment?

Thanks in advance
