Here is a print ad for the Radio Shack Tandy 5000 MC from 1988.
This was one of few (only?) computers that used IBM's proprietary Micro Channel Architecture (MCA), other than IBM. It was possible to get MCA compatibility without paying IBM price.

Intel 80386 20 MHz + open 80387 socket
2 MB RAM
VGA graphics (256 colors)
84 MB Hard Drive
$6999

heh, monitor sold separately Razz

Must have been a 80386DX, as i don't think the SX ever used the 82385 cache controller that i know of. And in any event, i don't think the SX came out till '91 or so..
