(It's too far away or I'd jump at it).

The Tandy 6000HD is the version of the Tandy 6000 with one of the two
built-in floppy drives (8" half-height double-sided) replaced with a
15 Mbyte hard drive. The CPU is an 8MHz 68000 that has a Z-80 CPU to
handle I/O (in fact, the Z-80 can boot all by itself to run older
software for the TRS-80 Model II or Model 12). The normal operating
system is Xenix. Stock RAM is 512K or 1Mb. I'll be putting up a
bunch of info on the Tandy 2/12/16/6000 line when I finally get to
have a web page stored on my local systems instead of the measily
10 Mb my ISP allocates -- a fast link a static IP address through the
cable TV company is supposed to be available _sometime_ this quarter.
When that happens, I also hope to provide a guest login to the Tandy
Xenix system through a serial connection from my Linux box. (Also
the AT&T Unix PC and maybe even the Coco 3 running OS-9 Level II).

When I was crossing the border into Canada, they asked me if I had any
firearms with me.  I said "Well, what do you need?"  --  Steven Wright
