Who in their right mind would run OpenDOS on a Tandy TL/2?  What
benefit would it give them?  Mine has 640k, and I use it as a
spare Linux terminal via Telix, also I have it reading from 2
parallel port interfaces that I've wired stuff up to.  I can't
see how my Tandy could benefit from OD.

So lets make that...

n] Make sure OpenDOS doesn't run on DEC Rainbows :-))) AND Tandy
   TL/2's.
