NOVELL CERTIFIED TANDY COMPUTERS

Four Tandy Computers have achieved Novell Certification, and
more will be certified in the months ahead.

Novell Certification assures you that the Tandy Computers you
select have been fully tested for the Novell environments they
are intended to serve.  This certification is a requirement for
many bids.

Novell Certification is more than a rubber stamp process by
Novell.  Each system is rigorously tested to meet or exceed the
expectations of compatibility, functionality and reliability in a
Novell Network configuration.

This important feature differentiates our quality Tandy Computers
from the competition, which may not offer this important extra
security of Novell Certification.

Here are the CPUs and configurations tested:
