There were a number of 'Tandy' computers that were nothing more than
generic TRS-80 machines with "Tandy" logos. While the program didn't
really get into the swing of things until the Model III came out, there were
'allegedly' a few Model I's that went out that way through the International
Franchise group. Phil Organ was responsible for some of them, as well
as Gil Alverez in the 'Latin America' group. But I have no idea about
the specifics early on in the program.
If someone paid, Tandy would deliver... You'd be amazed at some of the
stuff that Tandy did that went out with other names on it.
When I saw my first 'white Model II', I wanted one! And a lot of other
people felt the same way. The silver had to go!
I think almost all the TRS-80 line also went out as 'Tandy' at one point
or another. Well, at least the US manufactured line.

Am very interested in this. Would love to know if TEAC made a TRS-80
clone, even if it was an OEM pocket computer...
Google search shows one Japanese article using such a model for
scientifc sensing. ref: http://www.google.com/search?q=Teac%2FTandy+PS-80
Do you have a link?
