The Unipolbrit[1] Komputer 2086 was a Polish version of the home computer Timex Sinclair 2068,[2][3][4][5][6][7][8] produced by a joint venture of the Polish state-owned Unimor and foreign company Polbrit International.[9] Introduced in 1986, the computer had a cost of roughly 190000 zł.[10]

The machine wasn't 100% ZX Spectrum-compatible (like all other Timex Sinclair computers) and a "Spectrum Emulation" cartridge was available (usually bundled).[11][12][13]
