The Tiki 100 was intended as an educational computer for children with good audiovisual capabilities for its time, but was eventually made obsolete by the IBM PC.
The computer was launched in the spring of 1984 under the original name Kontiki-100, and was first and foremost intended for the emerging educational sector, especially for primary schools. The machine was given good audiovisual capabilities for its time. This was a standard IBM PC-clone, with imported hardware which did not make any attempt at maintaining backward-compatibility with the Tiki-100. Later, an Intel 8088 based IBM PC compatible model running MS-DOS was made, somewhat confusingly called Tiki-100 Rev. After the commercial failure of the Tiki-100 rev. D, it was succeeded by the Tiki-200. Despite these attempts at adapting to the personal-computer market, due to steep competition Tiki-Data was unable to maintain a stable foothold in it and went into gradual decline.
