POSITIVE CORPORATION
Chatsworth, California.
1988 - 1993
Co-founded by Bryan Kerr (LinkedIn)

History of Quality Machines late 1980's - beginning of 1990's.

There is no found references about that corporation in California Department of the State, Delaware Corporation information, and or Nevada Corporations (Private registry system).
Products (Tandon Computer Lines) under logo of Positive Computers/Corporation.


Positive disappeared mysteriously, corporation became TSL Holding LLC then disappeared. Price Club then (Costco now) referred Positive PC owners to various telephone numbers in Moorpark, CA, Simi Valley, California. Tandon / Positive Chatsworth were closed.



Tandon Computers have more fans in Austria, Germany, Scotland, and United Kingdom than those in the USA. If you love to share your positive experience, please feel free and mail me at (catbastet@aol.com) . I have plenty of Tandon, Positive, PC Brand, Option & Option Pro, MCS 486/33. If you are restoring old vintage PC check e-Bay.

Apparently, you're going to have to settle for voice mail if you want to call Tandon Corp., the once high-flying Simi Valley computer maker. Callers to Tandon, which filed a Chapter 11 bankruptcy petition last year, now hear the following taped message: "Tandon Corp. has discontinued all North American sales operations. Please send any future written claims to Tandon Corp., c/o TSL Holdings LLC.

Just eight months ago, the shell of what was once giant Tandon Corp. filed for bankruptcy protection, ending one major chapter in the Tandon family of India's boom-to-bust experience in personal computer manufacturing. Now the Simi Valley-based Tandons are back in the public market: On Tuesday, Los Angeles brokerage Wedbush Morgan Securities underwrote a stock offering for Golden Systems Inc., a Tandon family enterprise that uses super-low-cost Indian labor to make parts for PCs.

Positive Computer was one of Tandon Corporation (Formerly was known as Tandon Magnetics).
Positive Computers were designed by Tandon Corporation  in Simi Valley. Parts were manufactured all over the globe. The cases were made by sheet metal company in central California, motherboards were printed initially by Siemens (Germany) then later were sent to  Singapore. Because Tandon was know for his drive business, most machine came with 2 floppy drives and one hard drive. Later they designed a bracket for second hard drive that was attached to the power supply (Power supply was made by one of Tendon's companies in Simi (Golden). It was cool idea that you buy PC once and for future upgrades , you would buy only CPU with upgrade board.


Soon this blog will be loaded with detailed picture.
I will post the Purchaser's Record Card of my first Positive Computer (11/20/1991)
