The CPC6128 launch in USA appears to have been a flop, only two months later, the "US model" (the CPC6128) was sold in europe. And there's little info on how many (if any) CPC6128's were sold in USA. NetherthelessNever the less, about a year later, Sears World Trade gave it another try with the Amstrad PCW8256 [http://books.google.de/books?id=Vi8EAAAAMBAJ&pg=PA11&lpg=PA11&dq=%22sears+world+trade%22+pcw8256&source=bl&ots=VU6kngg7gR&sig=xrxekhj05A3C3-yREE7ghP16I5s&hl=en&ei=r5iPTKSmJYqRswa-_cXjCw&sa=X&oi=book_result&ct=result&resnum=1&ved=0CBEQ6AEwAA InfoWorld - 7 Jul 1986, page 11].
