The new 286E with VGA display is its own logical appropriate enhancement. The new SuperSport 386SX is one of the best in his category and also supports OS in alternative to the usual/boring/time-consumed MS-DOS. ViceVersa, the TurboSport 386 with its hefty weight, low processor and unhappy box was a failure: the sales went nowhere and you can now buy it for less than the price of a good 80286 from discount sale-houses. The new TurboSport 20 MHz should be the revenge of the previous one. Instead, no: no 100 Mb hard disk option, just 3 Mb of maximum RAM expandability ... Therefore, no OS2 UNIX/XENIX/ESIX and the like. What a disappointment ZENITH!!!!! Who will buy your 386 TurboSport? Even if somebody would want to buy your computers just for their name, you yourself make a sort of "at-home" competition against it with your beautiful 386SX!!! How long time will go since we will see your TurboSport in the advs. offered for 2K?!? Why are you doing this to yourself (and to us potential customers) ZENITH? Aldo.
