Hi. Recently, I was given a Tandy 2000. That's it. Just the 2000. No keyboard, no monitor, just the CPU and 2 disk drives. I opened it up, and found 256KB RAM. The Radio Shack guy (who was helpful and seemed to know what he was talking about - believe it or not) says that it's got a 80186, and that while it's Messy Dos compatable, it's not PC compatable. It's also very obsolete. My question is, what can I do with this thing short of tying a chain to it and using it as a boat anchor? I'm going to the Trenton Computer Fair in a couple of weeks, and can hopefully get a monitor and keyboard *real* cheap. Assuming this, is there any support for this beast? Any user groups? Anyone out there actually still use one (and not as a boat anchor)? Thanks in advance for any responsed I might receive. -- +=====================================+=======================================+ | Mustang GT, there is no substitute. | Go Eagles, Flyers, Phillies, Sixers, | | - "Risky Business", paraphrased. | and Wings!
