Amstrad PC2286
RH-B8FQ
Amstrad moving upmarket: a 286 at 12MHz with VGA on the board, aimed at the business buyer who had outgrown a 1512. The 2000 series is where Amstrad's reputation turned, having shipped with a troubled 3.5-inch drive and a hard disk controller that earned the company a famous amount of bad press. That history is most of the interest — it is the machine that ended Amstrad's run as Britain's volume PC maker.
