    I remember seeing the Tandy 1000 for the first time while I was in the Army, so, 1985?

    Wow! they sold that junk for a lot of bucks regardless of the year. 1986 maybe, the dollar was probably worth about three times what it is today
    so it makes the prices on that junk tech stuff even worse. Bread was probalby 89 cents but a computer with DOS . a 13" monitor and 600 meg harddrive is $1600.
    Probably couldn't save a good size jpeg on it.

    The correct answer is 1991.

    Now a smart phone will just about do everything on that page.

    I don't remember the TL...my grandpa bought a 1000 in 1985, and we got the 1000EX in 1987.
