Aye Aye Jay! .. Yeah I remember Tandy and they had a wee shop in the Trinity Center at the corner of the Bridge St exit/entrance. Yeah I spent alot of time in there. It was half electronic components (like Maplin) and half electronic devices (Mini TV's, HiFi's, Boom-Box's, Music Keyboards, Computers and Computer equipment).. - They would cycle the devices on display every month, so the Computer wasn't always on display. I do miss Tandy. Seeing the DeskMate 3.0 OS again after all these years was a nice wee blast fae the past. Cheers Jay, appreciated.
5:36 the sound recording & playback capabilities depended upon if you had one with their Tandy Sound System, an ASIC with the 8bit PSG and a mono 8 bit ADC/DAC (did 44.1 khz!) which did that. i had the 1000 RL, which could record, albeit pitched down {there's a DOS version that VWestlife shows off that does a better job)
The memories are flooding back. So much hangman when I was a kid.

RadioShack still exists as a computer & electronics store which is currently owned by General Wireless Operations, Inc.
The hangman words were always so obscure. Should have had a category like wheel of fortune.

I enjoyed typing Desk at the prompt and coming up with this GUI! This video is gratifying, thanks!
Do you have the "Home Organizer" software, too? All of it is excellent!
ah my old friend Tandy Deskmate on a Tandy 1000 TL
I used to have Desk Mate on an 1000 RLX. I miss Desk Mate!
I especially miss Desk Mate!
How Deskmate ran on startup was simply by adding a line to autoexec.bat.
A Video on DeskMate! Do you know about SchoolMate Plus?
My grandpa had the tandy 1000 and my grandpa and grandma are alive and healthy!
This is about as bad as windows 1 & windows 2
Independence day next Tuesday, 2023, USA!
Nice video 👍 I’m also a Scottish tech TH-camr
What system are you using?
Do you have DOS 6.22 with a version of BASIC? What other software?
