| PC 7000 - 01 |
Sharp always had a reputation for building technically sound but rather strange computers, ignoring 'industry standards'. The PC-7000 broke this image. This was a "lunchbox" portable IBM PC compatible system. It had two 5''1/4 disk-drives mounted on the right side and a nice blue tiltable screen, the world's first backlit LCD. The system consisted of three main parts: system unit, keyboard and optional CE-700P printer. When the system had to be carried, both the keyboard and the printer clipped into the main unit. One year later (1986) , the PC-7100 was launched. It had a 20Mb hard-disk instead of the second built-in 5''1/4 FDD. (www.old-computers.com) |
