Has anyone out there had any experience with Radio Shack's new IBM
compatible Tandy-1000 ?  I'm considering purchasing an IBM compatible
wonder how is this one.

Thanks,

Its a nice unit at a good price unless you want to use special hardware.
It does not take full size IBM boards, and you have to add Tandy's RAM
expansion card if you want DMA (they put it on the first RAM card rather
than on the motherboard).
