The Tandy 1000 HX, released in 1987, was designed as another entry level IBM compatible personal computer The Tandy 1000 was followed by a series of models which appended two or three letters to the name, after a space, (e.g. Tandy 1000 EX, Tandy 1000 SX, Tandy 1000 TX, Tandy 1000 RL, Tandy 1000 RLX). In a few instances, a slash and a number or additional letters were appended to these letters (e.g. Tandy 1000 TL/2, Tandy 1000 RL/HD The Tandy 1000 HX was the bigger brother of the EX. It was mostly the same machine, but had a 3.5" floppy instead of a 5.25" one, and also had DOS 2.11 in ROM, which could be accessed by starting the computer with no bootable disk present. Like the EX, the clock speed of its 8088 CPU was increased to 7.16 MHz, providing a large performance benefit; although it could clock down to 4.77 MHz for compatibility with older applications) YEAR 1987 KEYBOARD Full stroke keyboard, 92 keys, 12 function keys CPU Intel 8088 SPEED 4.77 MHz / 7.16 MHz RAM 256 KB (up to 640 KB) ROM 16 KB Ouir unit has a moderl number of 25-1043A and a serial number of 110146 and complete with Tandy RGB Color Monitor No. 25-1043A eith a manufactured date of July 1988 and Tandy 55.25" 360K external disk dive: model number 25-1060 Manufacturer: Tandy Comment on This Page Other Systems Related To Tandy 1000 HX Personal Computer:
