Hello,

I bought a little Tandy 1500HD LapTop a few days ago which
(naturally) came without a manual.  Being new to both Tandy
computers and laptops in general I find myself gazing at a few
obviously useful features on this tiny jewel, and not having a
clue as to what Im looking at. <g>  Therefore I was wondering if
some kind soul might help me figure out a few things.  Theres a
few keys on this unit that Im not familiar with.  Ive figured
out that the Fn key acts like a Shift Key to some other like
colored keys, and even what a few of them are for.  But not all.
 Thus I ask, what are the functions of the Standby and
ScrLk/KeyPad keys?  And, what is the function of the
PrtSc/SysRq key? (I know about the print screen part BTW.)

Another question, relating to the (naturally dead) battery.  What
is the little switch on the battery pack for (that shows a small
red dot in one position)?

Also, is there more than likely something wrong with the speaker,
or is the sound quite low in volume on all of these machines?

Lastly:  Is there any way that I reverse the screen colors on
this pup?  (I.e. switch the screen to a negative image.)


Id really appreciate any tips offered,

Charles
