Changes

Despite this they were quite common because in the 80's, the french governement started a programme program "Plan informatique pour tous" (computering for allplan) which consisted of equipping schools with computers networks. As a result, a lot of Thomson computers were only sold to schools. Because a french computer, french games producers ported many of their games on those computers. Thomson computers were know to have been used in some cross developpment for Amstrad CPC games. *Le 5ème Axe (french name) from Loriciels, was originally a MO5 game.  Latter TO8 models did include Video mode similar to Amstrad CPC's ones, inb addition to a 16 colours character attributed mode (like on speccy) and a 4096 colour palette. also those latter models included more RAM than Amstrad's 8 bit computers. But those computers were lacking a decent sound chip : Even the AY seems like a sifd in comparison.And the only market was France, where Amstrad litteraly raped Thomson's market shares in their homeland.
