The Complete Computing Solution
Model TD-DT1000-A • Revision 4.71 • MIL-SPEC TD-QA-4471 Certified
Every DT-1000 ships with Portals DOS pre-installed — MicroSoul Corp's command-line operating system, configured and certified for immediate use. Upgrade to the full Portals 98 GUI desktop experience with a separate soulware floppy, available from MicroSoul Corp.
The Dead Terminal DT-1000 Desktop System represents the culmination of seven years of Terminal Dynamics engineering. Built around the SoulProc-1 66MHz Soul CPU, the DT-1000 delivers the processing power required by today's demanding soul management workflows, all within a chassis engineered to tolerances typically reserved for aerospace applications.
The DT-1000 is not merely a computer. It is a precision instrument, field-tested across 4,471 quality assurance checkpoints, stress-tested in conditions that would compromise lesser hardware, and certified for continuous operation in environments ranging from climate-controlled offices to whatever temperature your office actually is.
It is also beige. The beige was selected by committee.
