  • The Epson Equity series of IBM Compatible Personal Computers was manufactured from 1985 until the early '90s by Epson Inc. Epson was well known for its dot matrix printers at the time and the Equity series represents their entry into the growing PC compatible market. The Equity I was the first system introduced, equipped with an Intel 8088 CPU and one or two 5.25" floppy disk drives. The original Equity was a no-frills offering. It ran at the PC's standard 4.77 MHz clock rate, came with 256 KB RAM, expansion above 512 KB required an expansion board, displayed CGA video, had few available expansion slots, only two half-height drive bays, and lacked a socket for an 8087 math chip. Subsequent versions, the Equity I+ and Apex 100, upped the clock rate to 10 Mhz, the standard RAM to 640 KB, supported 3.5 inch floppy drives and hard disks, sported an 8087 socket, and had display circuitry for the monochrome Hercules Graphics Adapter. Epson bundled some utility programs that offered decent turnkey functionality for novice users. The Equity was a reliable and compatible design for half the price of a similarly-configured IBM PC. Epson often promoted sales by bundling one of their printers with it at cost. The Equity I sold well enough to warrant the furtherance of the Equity line with the follow-on Equity II, Equity III, and others based on the i386SX. (en)
  • La serie Epson Equity de compatibles IBM PC fue fabricada desde 1985 hasta principios de los 90 por Epson Inc. Epson era conocida por sus impresoras de matriz de puntos en ese momento y la serie Equity representa su entrada en el creciente mercado de los compatibles con PC. El Equity I fue el primer sistema introducido equipado con una CPU Intel 8088 y una o dos disqueteras de 5,25". El Equity original era un equipo sencillo, sin lujos. Funcionaba a la velocidad de reloj estándar de 4,77 MHz del IBM PC, venía con 256 KB de RAM (para agregar más de 512 KB de memoria requería una placa de expansión), video CGA, tenía pocas ranuras de expansión disponibles, solo dos bahías para unidades de media altura y carecía de un zócalo para un coprocesador matemático Intel 8087. Las versiones posteriores, Equity I+ y Apex 100, aumentaron la velocidad del reloj a 10 MHz, la memoria RAM estándar a 640 KiB, admitieron unidades de disquete y discos duros de 3,5 pulgadas, tenían un zócalo 8087 y tenían circuitería compatible Hercules Graphics Card monocromo. Epson incluyó algunos programas de utilidades que ofrecían una funcionalidad llave en mano decente para usuarios novatos. Equity era un diseño confiable y compatible por la mitad del precio de un IBM PC configurada de manera similar. Epson a menudo promovía las ventas al incluir una de sus impresoras al costo. El Equity I se vendió lo suficientemente bien como para garantizar el avance de la línea Equity con los siguientes Equity II, Equity III y otros basados ​​en el i386SX. (es)
