And they would sell spare parts and service manuals for just about everything they sold. Their pocket computers were of course essentially re-badged Sharp and Casio machines. Getting the service manuals from the original companies was moderately harder than getting defence secrets. Getting the manuals from Tandy/Radio Shack was simply a matter of ordering them at the local shop. -tony
