Tandy computers were awesome for their time. We had them at the university doing lab projects and for doing statistics. Truly a revolution to not have to get in line for time on the campus mainframe. Later, Apples came along and then PCs. Tandy just didn’t understand the market had changed a lot in a short time. Tandy sold their computer division to AST and AST sold to Samsung.

I think a Tandy 486 or something was the first “affordable computer” to have a built-in CD player or something. I could be wrong though,
