[comp.windows.ms] Windows 3.0 on a Tandy 1000TX

andrem@pyrman2.pyramid.com (Andre Molyneux) (11/06/90)

I hope this is the correct newsgroup to ask a question about Microsoft
Windows 3.0.  Please tell me if there is a more appropriate newsgroup
I should post to.

My question is:  Does Windows 3.0 work on a Tandy 1000TX?  My girlfriend has
one of these Radio Shack PC clones, and I would like to buy Windows for it.
However, I understand that Tandy machines aren't quite like most other
clones (something about no dedicated screen memory or soemthing like that?)
and that some software isn't compatible.  Also, if the software does run,
will the normal Tandy mouse and driver work with it?

By the way, how much memory is required to use it effectively?

Any help would be appreciated.  Please mail responses to my address below
as I don't regularly subscribe to this newsgroup.

Thanks in advance
