Homestar Emails/Tandy 600X

From Homestar Runner Fanstuff Wiki

The Tandy 600x is the next big leap from Strong Bad's original computer for Tandy Corperation. After Strong Bad's Tandy blew up the Tandy Co upgraded to a more safe version called the Tandy 401. They then made various upgrades and sold them as seperate computers. Until now. The Tandy 600x has an enhanced processor called the 600, hence the name; a duel task operating system (runs applications AND surfs the internet); and the Xcore Explotion Saftey Component/Cooling System. It's truly a leap in Tandy Technology. Homestar used the Tandy 600x to check emails until email 3 where The Cheat smashed it with a hammer.

Graphical Capabilities

The new 600 Processor allows the Tandy to create much more stunning graphics than its predecessors. Some examples are

The Startup Screen. Since the Tandy is in an idling startup mode, it can create pre-rendered smooth graphics like those seen in the logo. another example is

The Cheat, from CheatSpeak. This is an example of real time rendering, a little more pixellated, but much nicer than the Tandy 400 and capable of two shades of color (light and dark green).
