Tandy FaxBack, (800) 323-6586, is an automated system that will fax you
a wide range of spec sheets and technical documents about Tandy products.
You use a touch-tone phone to enter the document numbers and the phone
number of your fax machine. The only catch - to get the document number
you need the FaxBack index for that item; to get the item index you have
to get the index for the category (such as computers); to get the
computer index, you need the general catalog list <g>.

To save a few iterations, the categories are:
    (1) Home & Auto Security Systems   (5) Home Electronics
    (2) Cellular Phones                (6) Satellite Systems
    (3) Computer Products              (7) Natl. Parts Exploded Views
    (4) Auto Electronics               (8) Material Safety Data Sheets
(these indexes are requested from the "Catalog Information" option).

The Computer Products index lists the following indexes and FaxBack nbrs:
    2518 Expansion boards        2511 Monitors
    2512 Tandy Computers         2577 Mouse/Keyboards
    3280 AST Computers           2514 Multimedia Equipment
    3154 Computer Accessories    2500 Personal Digital Assistants (Z-PDA)
    2495 Floppy Drives           2513 Printers
    2515 Hard Drives/Cards       3149 Power Accessories
    2516 Smart Drives            2517 Tape Drives/OCS
    1022 Modems                  2494 Word Processors

The Tandy Computers index (#2512) lists the following computer models and
the numbers for their catalogs. On your initial call request the FaxBack
item number for your computer (get #2512 at the same time). On your next
call you can get the specific documents you want.
