The Kaypro 2X is a combination of the Kaypro 2 and 4. It comes with two 392K drives, a real-time clock, and a 300-baud internal modem.

When the consolidated model line was being planned, Kaypro felt that the Kaypro 2 name was better recognized than Kaypro 4, so the Kaypro 2 designation was kept and applied to the Kaypro 4.

The software that comes with the 2X includes WordStar, The Word Plus, Microsoft BASIC-80, CBASIC, S-BASIC, InfoStar, CalcStar, Mite, MicroPlan, and the CP/M 2.2 operating system.

In addition to the standard Kaypro 2X, the Kaypro "Business Pak" consists of the Kaypro 2X plus a letter-quality printer from NEC. The Juki 6100 is no longer Kaypro's official letter-quality printer. It's been replaced by the NEC ELF.
