I almost got a similar Tandy at Goodwill for $40, but didn't buy when I saw the look on my wife's face when she saw the beige monstrosity I wanted to bring home. So I'm stuck with DosBox for the foreseeable future. I'm glad it survived the flood, but I'm sorry your insurance isn't covering anything. Funny similar story: my back door is currently boarded up because someone tried to break in while we were on vacation. They didn't steal anything (luckily, because there's about $4,000 worth of audio equipment right inside the back door). Anyway, insurance quoted us a deductible so high that we might as well do the repair without bringing them into it. Makes me wonder what we pay for each month.
$40? That was a great deal. Too bad you didn't get it, but I understand. My insurance company said they understand a lot of the flooding happened because the door ended up getting blown open. They said the door was covered, but not the flood damage. So with a $1250 deductible, I decided to fix the $300 door myself.
Any way I can buy a bootable drive for xtide with Tandy Dos on it? My Tandy 1000sx came with a dos disc but it’s corrupted. Xtide that I ordered with bootable drive doesn’t work.

I ordered my DOS disks on eBay. There's a gentleman who makes brand new copies of original disks. They worked flawlessly to install DOS on mine.
