Kaypro model numbers

Apple customers have a long tradition of griping about Apple’s silly naming policies. But I take it all back after going over this Kaypro timeline from the ’80s. Let’s see, in chronological order starting in 1982 we have:

  • Kaypro II (the first model, so naturally we call it “II”)
  • Kaypro IV
  • Kaypro 10
  • Kaypro 4 (totally different from the “IV” of course!)
  • Kaypro 2 (totally… never mind)

This madness continued through several more models until the Kaypro 1 was released in 1986, at which point the company completely imploded, possibly due to a logic vacuum deep in its core or a breach in the space-time continuum.
