RARE Vintage Texas Instruments Business Pro Desktop Computer 2241053-0001 *Read*
Vintage, For Parts/Not WorkingPower tested only! This is a very rare computer made by Texas Instruments, unfortunately missing its front face. This computer shares the same "Business Pro" model name as another computer made by T.I. however this one appears to be much less common. In terms of hardware, this machine is PACKED! Its motherboard has a riser card that connects it to a second backplane that offers 14 ISA expansion slots; thats right, fourteen! Additionally, we have never seen a computer with memory that interfaces with the motherboard in this way, slotting directly on to a row of tall pins. Shown in photos. The battery pack that was originally mounted to the front face of the computer has leaked considerably, however the damage did not extend to where the motherboard is. The damage has been partially cleaned by the previous owner. We were told this was the beginning of a restoration that the last owner never continued. The machine has been tested to power on, but we lack the proper monitor to test graphics output. The computer is being sold as is, tested for power only. See photos for details. Cosmetic condition is rough.This is a vintage item. It is shown to be in the condition described above. However, due to the age of this item, we cannot guarantee continued functionality and it is being sold "as-is".What's Included:1X- Vintage Texas Instruments Business Pro Desktop Computer 2241053-0001Does not include any additional cables, parts, or accessories.The Texas Instruments (TI) BUSINESS-PRO(TM) Computer, a member of
the TI Professional Computer line, can be configured for a
variety of computer applications. The BUSINESS-PRO offers most
of the features of the Texas Instruments Professional Computer
(TIPC) plus greater memory and mass storage capacity, greater
expandability, and greater speed.
The BUSINESS-PRO can be configured to be compatible with most of
the software designed for the TIPC as well as that designed for
the IBM(R) Personal Computer AT(TM) (PC-AT). The computer
supports a wide variety of operating systems, including MS(R)-DOS
and XENIX(R). While using MS-DOS, the user can switch back and
forth between the TI mode and the PC-AT mode with the appropriate
hardware.
The BUSINESS-PRO computer's unique turbo operating mode increases
the speed of the computer by deleting memory wait states. This
enhancement allows both 16-bit and 8-bit memory transfer
operations with minimum delay.
