Although Tandy initially marketed the 1000 as a business computer like the IBM PC, "InfoWorld" stated in 1985 that the company "produced a real home computer". The company claimed that the 1000 was "the first fully IBM PC-compatible computer available for less than $1000". The 1000 helped the company obtain a 9.5% share of the US home-computer market in 1986, a year in which Tandy stated that half of its compatibles were purchased for the home. In 1988 CEO John Roach disagreed with Apple counterpart John Sculley's rejection of the home market: "Let him deny it. He's the only other person that's well-represented in the home market, and if he wants to abandon it, it's all right with me". Tandy also regained a significant share of the Apple-dominated educational market, which the two companies had once equally shared.
