I posted the inquiry about the Tandy 1000TX because I wanted to find out some
information about the machine not argue about how compatible it is with
an IBM PC.

I own a Tandy 1000A and had real problems at first. Then I added the piece
of **essential** hardware that Tandy left out -- the DMA chip. After I added
this chip and some more memory, I have not found a program yet that does
not run on it. I have 640K, a hard disk card and a 2400 baud modem in it
and I find I have no problems with reboots or the like because of the 
supposed weeeak power supply.

Anyways, I didn't want to hear about how BAD my machine was, only what is
the SCOOP on the new 1000TX with the 80286 processer.

I still would like to hear about any comments anyone has on the 1000TX!
