Amstrad, Velika Britanija

Opis:
Bež računalnik z dvema disketnima enotama na sprednji strani in napisom PC 1512 DD. [SLO]: Amstrad PC1512, predstavljen leta 1986, je zaznamoval pomemben vstop v rastočo dobo osebnega računalništva. To obdobje je prineslo vzpon računalnikov IBM PC, ki so hitro postali sinonim za izraz "PC" in so postavili standard za osebne računalnike. Ko je IBM-ova arhitektura začela prevladovati na trgu, so številni proizvajalci, vključno z Amstradom, razvili cenovno dostopnejše različice, ki so ohranile združljivost z IBM-ovo programsko in strojno opremo. Ti stroji, znani kot "IBM PC kompatibilni", so posnemali bistvene lastnosti IBM PC-ja. Amstrad, britansko podjetje, najbolj znano po svojih priljubljenih domačih računalnikih Amstrad CPC iz 80. let, je zasnovalo PC1512 kot cenovno ugoden, z IBM-om združljiv sistem. PC1512 je imel horizontalno ohišje, monitor, snemljivo tipkovnico in miško. Opremljen je bil s procesorjem Intel 8086, 512 KB pomnilnika, dvema 5,25-palčnima 360KB diskovnima enotama in opcijskim trdim diskom s kapaciteto 10 ali 20 MB. Poganjal je MS-DOS 3.2 ali DOS Plus, njegova enota za plavajočo vejico (FPU) pa mu je zagotavljala prednost pri numeričnih operacijah, zlasti pri aplikacijah CAD, saj je celo prekašal nekatere poznejše arhitekture PC-jev, kot je 286. PC1512 je bil prvenstveno namenjen evropskemu trgu, vendar je našel uspeh tako med domačimi uporabniki kot tudi v podjetjih, nekaj enot pa je bilo prodanih tudi v Združenih državah. Bil je eden prvih cenovno dostopnih PC-jev v Evropi, ki je dosegel široko priljubljenost. PC1512 je bil združljiv z vso pomembno programsko opremo poznih 80. in zgodnjih 90. let, vključno z WordStar, WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, Lotus 1-2-3, MATLAB in dBase. Čeprav je bil dobavljen z GEM, priljubljenim grafičnim vmesnikom tistega časa, je PC1512 lahko poganjal tudi Microsoft Windows, kar je njegovim uporabnikom ponujalo vsestranskost. [ENG]: The Amstrad PC1512, introduced in 1986, marked a significant entry into the burgeoning era of personal computing. This period saw the rise of the IBM PC, which quickly became synonymous with the term "PC" and set a standard for personal computing. As IBM's architecture began to dominate the market, numerous manufacturers, including Amstrad, developed more affordable versions that maintained compatibility with IBM's software and hardware. These machines, known as "IBM PC compatibles," replicated the essential features of the IBM PC. Amstrad, a British company best known for its popular Amstrad CPC home computers of the 1980s, designed the PC1512 to be a cost-effective, IBM-compatible system. The PC1512 featured a horizontal case, a monitor, a detachable keyboard, and a mouse. It was equipped with an Intel 8086 CPU, 512 KB of memory, dual 5.25-inch 360KB floppy drives, and an optional hard drive with a capacity of 10 or 20 MB. It ran on MS-DOS 3.2 or DOS Plus, and its floating-point unit (FPU) gave it a performance edge in numerical operations, particularly in CAD applications, even outperforming some later PC architectures like the 286. Primarily targeted at the European market, the PC1512 found success among both home users and businesses, with some units also sold in the United States. It was one of the first affordable PCs in Europe to achieve widespread popularity. The PC1512 was compatible with all major software of the late 1980s and early 1990s, including WordStar, WordPerfect, Microsoft Word, Lotus 1-2-3, MATLAB, and dBase. Although it was shipped with GEM, a popular graphical user interface at the time, the PC1512 could also run Microsoft Windows, offering versatility to its users.
