The Journey from Fort Worth, Tx to Silicon Valley to Main Street

The Look Back welcomes Jim Hamilton to the program. Jim came out of the Tandy workshop back in the day, probably most known for its Radio Shack stores, which Charles Tandy and Team bought in 1962 for $300K and grew to 8000 stores. He  was also an exec with Tandy offshoots Computer City and Incredible Universe - and efforts like Motorola Mobility, Get It Now.gr, and PowerMat. He's been a Professor of Entrepreneurship for the past 8 years at the University of Dallas and shares some wonderful stories from the PC era and lessons for today's entrepreneurs.
