Tandon PCX

Tandon · 1985

A PC/XT clone from the company that made the floppy and hard drives inside half the industry's machines, including IBM's own. Tandon selling complete computers was vertical integration in action, and the PCX was sold hard into the British market on price. Worth having as a well-built example of the first clone wave, and as a reminder that the component supplier often knew more about building the machine than the brand on the front did.
