I simple don't want to read all this garbage about advertising gimicks
that Tandy is using, when IBM is doing the same thing (maybe not right
now but they have before).  I just wanted the cross-postings to tandy to
stop.  I read this newsgroup to here about Tandy products and there
progress.  I think that if someone was posting to the IBM pc newsgroup
of the failures of IBM products from another newsgroup you would feel
the same.  It is obvious that there is the use of an advertising gimick
I don't dispute that.  It just get OLD sometimes to here needless
repetition.  I like IBM products I use them everyday, it's not an
anti-IBM thing, it is an Pro-Tandy, Pro-IBM thing.  I like to here
discussions not flames.  There probably is always going to be a better
value, for either IBM or Tandy.
