Arnold is Amstrad's internal codename for the CPC computers.
In the BIOS ROM the string "Arnold" is found as a (non-selectable) leading dummy-entry in the list of [[LK-selectable Brand Names]].
The name of the character [[Roland]] (occuring early [[Amsoft]] games) is an anagram of [[Arnold (Codename)|Arnold]].
== Arnold Numbers ==
Arnold 1-5 are often used to refer to different CPC models.
* Arnold 1 - CPC 464
* Arnold 2 - CPC 664
* Arnold 3 - CPC 6128
* Arnold 4 - costdown CPCs, the 100pin ASIC chip is marked "ARN4" in costdown schematics [http://www.cpcwiki.eu/manuals/Amendment%20Service%20Manual.rar Amendment Service Manual], page 20)
* Arnold 5 - CPC Plus (the [[Original Arnold V Specs]] refer to the CPC Plus [or to its ASIC chip?] as "Arnold V")
Actually, Arnold 1-3 ''might'' also refer to the three Gate Array revisions, 40007, 40008, and 40010. ''[Are there any official documents on Arnold 1-3?]''
