Tandy and Amstrad machines had one accessory available
that AFAIK was not
avaialbe for other clones (it was avaialbe for IB< 5150/5160/5170
machines). This accessory is rather important to me. I refer, of course,
to a schematic diagram.

The Tandy 2000 tech manual even included circuit board artwork. IINM IBM's extensive
documentation didn't have that. They did include rom sources though, which Tandy
didn't.
I've seen a fair amount of tech manuals. It's hard to beat these 2.

AFAIK the IBM manuals were the only ones to include complete BIOS ROM
source. Certainyl Tandy and Amstrad didn't.
HP producded reasoanble Techrefs for their PC-incompatibles, at least the
HP150, 150-II and Portable+ (I have all of them). Schematics, yes, ROM
source, no.
