Amstrad PC2286
The Amstrad PC2286 was launched 1989. It was part of the 2000 series, that consisted of three models: PC2086 (8086), PC2286 (80286) and PC2386 (80386DX).
The series launched as a professional follow on to the PC1512/1640, using a plastic case similar to previous models, but this time the main computer unit had its own power supply unit built in. The machine's BIOS setting were battery-backed, using four AA batteries mounted on top of the base unit.
The PC2286 came with 3.5" floppy drives as standard, with a side port enabling an external 5¼" disk drive to be connected. A range of monitors where available, with 12" and 14" screens both in monochrome and colour.
The differences across the range were mainly the CPU, memory and hard drive capacity.
