TO Ross Alford and anyone else who cares:
Re: technical info on Tandy products.
You have to remember that the guys in the computer centers are
paid for the most part on a comission basis and unless you are
interested in a larger purchase, the majority of the order takers
unfortunatly aren't interested in going to a lot of trouble in
getting a technical manual for you. And... a lot of them don't
know they can do it either. (I wonder when the last time John
Roach waltzed, unannounced in to a retail outlet and posed as a
regular customer....? I have a feeling Tandy would be replacing
employees right & left.... then again, or would they?)
What ever happened to the feeling, "The customer pays my salary,
I'll do every thing I can To help him"? Sounds great comming from
the top, but to often it fades away before getting to the lower
eschilons!

However, unless things have changed, you may order the manual
(or any other part) yourself from:
	Tandy National Parts
	900 E. Northside Dr.
	Ft. Worth TX 76106
	(817) 870-5600
The ladies that answer the phones are quite helpful and
knowlegable and should be able to help you.

For what ever it's worth, I believe that Bill Walsh is still head
of customer service. Or at least he's high enough to get action.

Pardon the mild flame. As an ex-Tandyite and still stock holder,
I have 'walked many a mile in those moccasuns', so I know from
wence I came.
