- The Tandy MS-DOS software and the TI Professional MS-DOS
- software are "apples and oranges"... The poor person may
- not have realized that, while the TI PC is an MS-DOS machine,
- it is NOT IBM compatible, and only specially-designed software
- will run on it. Sort of like the DEC Rainbow and the Zenith

- One thing to warn him- it might not be a good idea to upgrade
- this to an IBM compatible, tho` I think it is possible.
