I remember those! I used to work for a Radio Shack Computer Center and
each night we would enter all of the sales slips into the system and then it
would dial into Fort Worth and transmit that days sales and inventory
control, Radio shack did a superb job of tracking store sales figures and
automatically restocking, all this and they used their own hardware which
was also a strange thing to see as most companies were selling computer
equipment, yet using other company equipment for day to day operations.
Ahhh the good old TRS80 days..... damn I'm feeling nostalgic, anybody have
a Model III or IV to sell/trade?

The only information I have on it is that it was made
for Tandy by another
unidentified company. The system was built into a desk and sold only at
the
Tandy Center store in Fort Worth. It had dual 8-inch
floppies and sold for
just under $10,000. There's a photo of one in the August 1986 issue of 80
Micro.

a
picture of one in a book, and got kind of
interested in it (partially a
little home-town pride, being from Fort Worth). I can't find hardly any
information about it on the internet.
