Yep. They're PC/XT clones. The Tandy 1000TL's had the microphone port.
They had a built-in "Tandy Sound Chip". It put out better sound (in Tandy
1000-supported games) that the standard PC-speaker setting. Haven't gotten
the mic to work yet, though. I wish I could find a driver that would run
the chip through Windows...

I have seen the type that looks like a C64 (can't remember if it was a 1000
or not. They did make the CoCo series, but they didn't have the disk
drives. If anyone has one of the 1000's (?) with the built-in drive (and
keyboard), and you want to sell it, send me an email, because I'm probably
interested.
