Toshiba UK Ltd has revealed plans to unveil a new marketing strategy at the PC User Show, due to open at London’s Olympia Exhibition Hall on Tuesday June 28. Essentially, Toshiba is repositioning itself in the UK as a solutions provider within the personal computer market, by making a range of new products available. Top of the list are the StarLAN local area network and the T8500 20MHz 80386-based network file server: the former comes as a hub unit, priced at UKP395, or in UKP195 T-Card or D-Card versions. Second, and billed as the UK’s first Postscript compatible laser printer, is the PageLaser8 XL/PS, for a list price of UKP3,495: also available, for UKP2,295 is the naked PageLaser8 XL, which offers all the features bar the page description language, of its big brother. Software to back up the new strategy includes the T/Pix implementation of Unix, and Microsoft’s Windows 386 for the T5100 portable, implementations of OS/2 on all -286 and -386-based computers, and MS-DOS Version 3.3 planned for the late summer. Toshiba will also introduce backlit screens as standard features on the latest IBM-compatible T1200 portable: users can choose between a T1200 with Supertwist for UKP2,395, or pay UKP2,695 for the Backlit; a backlit upgrade kit is also offered for existing users for UKP395.
