Oh, No? Then I guess the "1988 Express Order Catalog" that I have
right here, that is WRITTEN by tandy,  PUBLISHED by tandy,  and available
free of charge in your local TANDY computer center, subject to availability.
Is just a figment of my imagination?  That must meen that the 300+ Pages
with an average of 7 Third party peices of software per-page must *ALSO*
be a figment of my imagination?  Perhaps if you were to ask really really
nicely they might even give you a copy.


> and Tandy specific printers are worthless...
Gee,  Such a broad statement, and I suppose that you can offer some
suggestions on which NON-TANDY printer to use with say, Radio
Shack Busniess Graphics packages?  Or how about Scripsit? Oh now
theres an interesting item, voted the most popular unix word processor
by the readers of "UNIX" world, and from the factory, scripsit only
supports TANDY printers.

Maybe you should modify your statment a bit?
