The date and time never worked for me either. That was my first PC computer ever that I got in 87. Thank you so much for taking me back in time.
P.S. You pretty much needed a joystick or a mouse (plugged into the joystick port) to do much of anything with Personal Deskmate 2.
P.P.S. Mine still worked after 12 years of regular use. Gave it to my hippie friend next door :).

The 1000HX never had a battery, you had to set the date and time everytime you booted. Is why we never shut it off

The "battery" was non-existent in a stock Tandy 1000 HX (and SX, EX, etc..). You had to get a seperate clock "chip" and install it in order for it to keep the date/time.

LOL what did I know anyway! I was only 4 when we bought this computer and as far as I could tell the date/time never worked (my parents swore it did but in all my days playing sesame street games I never remembered the date being correct. Thanks for explaining it! My parents always said it needed a battery or some such thing.
