The History of Tandy: A Legacy of Affordable Electronics

Tandy is a brand of RadioShack, a popular electronics retailer. The name "Tandy" was used by RadioShack for some of its products, particularly computers and other electronic devices.

The name "Tandy" comes from the company's founder, Charles Tandy, who founded RadioShack in 1921. Over the years, the Tandy brand became synonymous with affordable electronics and computer products, and it was used for a wide range of items, including calculators, cameras, and home computers.

However, in recent years, the Tandy brand has been phased out by RadioShack in favor of the RadioShack name. Today, you are unlikely to find many products bearing the Tandy name, although some vintage Tandy devices may still be found on online marketplaces or in second-hand stores.
