If you end up running the Tandy 1000 24/7 I would highly suggest a modern power supply. Too many old machines have been lost to bad caps in the power supply. RIP to both long time runners the Celeron300a machine and the CoreDuo DELL Jas shipped me when I had no BBS machine. Both died from cap failure in the power supply.

I try and read the manual before asking someone that knows already. 
Manuals are great, for something like Renegade a install guide would be helpful, or would it since there is so many different ways to run Renegade you would want it to cover many bases and we are then back to the full manual.
