These computers were manufactured in mid to late 80's, so most of them predate both 486 and CD-ROM.

Yeah back then my Pravetz was already 6 years ( manufactured around '88 [1] ) old and still very popular. I didn't have CD-ROM until I got my first 486DX4 custom case computer.

Precisely. And I listed what many of us on the other side had in '94.

I used http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pravetz_computers as my source of information about Pravetz since I don't speak Bulgarian or Russian.
