   Never owned any of his products with the exception of the TRaSh-80. I   
   did, however , work on a Tandy 1000 running Unix that was the main box   
   for Family Video - a chain of video rental stores that survived to be   
   the last remaining physical video rental operation in USA. They used to   
   1000 well into the first decade of this century. It was sort of amazing    
   to know that this fairly major company was being coordinated by a wood    
   fired, steam powered computer.  Bv)=
