At our local campus computer show, I asked a Tandy rep about the 1000TX.
I had seen one briefly a few days before, so I had a couple of questions.
As far as I am concerned, the biggest problem is the fact the TX uses
a short card cage, and thus can accept only half cards or Tandy cards.
I had hoped that they learned their lesson with the early 1000xx
and wouldn't do that again.

Hope springs eternal, but that's the way Tandy likes to do things.
