        Tandy sold a version for the Model 2000, as well as some of
the later TRS-80 badged machines. The Model 2000's version didn't
work well at all and brought to light all kinds of nasty bugs in the
machine that didn't otherwise show up. Most of the later service
bulletins released by Tandy for the machine were geared towards
fixing these bugs under Xenix.
