Dunno... there were *lots* of Tandy 1000's... ;-) From memory, TX, SX, TL,
SL, TL/2, SL/2, (maybe a) TL/3, RL, RLX, HX, EX... I'm sure I'm missing a
few, as well...
The last two - the HX & EX, were all-in-one units with the keyboard
built-into the system unit, one floppy, minimal and specialized expansion -
maybe those didn't have DMA???
There's a picture of one about 1/2 way down, at the IckiPedia:

Correct (well, it was option in the Tandy 1000,
it was included on the
RAM expansion board).
