I always wonder what the rational was on the "6000" name. I understand Tandy wanted to move away from the "TRS-80” name, hence the "Tandy 6000”, but it was really just a slightly enhanced TRS-80 Model 16B.
It was my impression that the "Tandy" branded line consisted mostly of equipment targeted squarely at the business community, who might have been less receptive to the moniker "Radio Shack". However, there was duplication between the "Radio Shack" and "Tandy" products. Tandy did have their own B&M retail outlets.
That being said, my Model 16 bears the "Radio Shack" label. --Chuck
