The X1cs, as well as the X1ck, are derived from the X1c. They are low price models.

The difference between X1c and X1cs, is that the X1c can be connected to a 4 colors plotter/printer, whereas the X1cs has two I/O ports instead of the plotter/printer connector.

Tape Basic and Disk Basic were available but had to be loaded from tape.
