Tandy TRS‑80 Model 16B
The TRS-80 Model 16B is most likely the best-selling model of Tandy’s business line.
It was a modest improvement over the TRS-80 Model 16 and Model 12. With slightly faster processors, this machine could run TRS-XENIX even more efficiently. It became the best-selling UNIX-based system of 1984, with over 40,000 units sold.
Unlike the Model 12 and Model 16, it returned to a grey-colored case.
