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.
