Other Computers:8 bit computers
From CPCWiki - THE Amstrad CPC encyclopedia!
When the Amstrad CPC range entered the market, personnal home computer were already available.
The Amstrad CPC range was not the best competitor, yet as the product was complete and ready to use, it managed to conquer good parts of the 8 bit market... And many computers were promptly removed from the market thanks to Amstrad.
Notable other producers (and computers) from this era were :
- Commodore (C64) (USA)
- ZX Spectrum (ZX80, ZX81, Sinclair ZX) (UK)
- Thomson computers (MO5, TO7...) (France)
- ACORN (BBC micro)
- MSX Standard (various producers, yet a Z80 based technology)
