Luxor

Radio maker in Motala that became Sweden’s largest maker of radio and television sets; also the ABC 80 computer (1978).

Axel Holstensson started a firm in Motala that made radio sets, and it became Sweden's largest maker of radios and televisions. Motala was a centre for radio after the national transmitter was built there.

Luxor made radio and television sets in wood and later in plastic, and the ABC 80 of 1978 became an early Swedish personal computer. The company was bought by Nokia in 1985.
