===Aleste 520EX==
There was one clone of CPC maden in Russia at 1994. Its name was Aleste 520EX.
This two-faced machine runs all original CPC software (CPC+ too?) and also MSXDOS whith command line tools, C compiller and several windowed tools: text-editor, debugger, disk-editor. The computer has software emulator of [[MSX]]2 video controller and runs several [[MSX]]2 games. The clone used by [[MSX]] users and homebrewers.
===VEB Mikroelectronic KC Compact===''Note: This is the edited translation of a magazine advert for the computer. I don't know the original translator, so I'm afraid no credit can be given.'' The KC compact is a new developed home computer, made by VEB Mikroelektronik "Wilhelm Pieck" Muehlhausen. The system can be expanded software- or hardware-wise. The KC compact is a compact, easy to use computer. It consists of a base unit with integrated keyboard and an external power supply. An RGB-monitor or a (non)colour-TV can be connected. A cassette recorder is used to store data. A disc-drive is to follow soon. The homecomputer sports an 8-bit-processor, 64 Kbyte RAM and 32 Kbyte ROM. The BASIC-interpreter with an extended instruction set (181 instructions) and the operating system (non KC-85 compatible) are stored in ROM. The computer supports three graphic modes: *mode 0: 200 * 160 pixels with 16 of 27 colours *mode 1: 200 * 320 pixels with 4 of 27 colours *mode 2: 200 * 640 pixels with 2 of 27 colours The KC compact has a sound-generator with three channels and 8 octaves. In comparison with KC-85-system the KC compact has a new design: the newly designed keyboard has 69 keys. The keyboard is programmable (ASCII-codes, autorepeat on/off). Seven keys may be programmed with words and instructions (jobs). Independent of screenmode there are 25 lines. The number of characters per line depends on the screenmode. *mode 0: 20 characters/line *mode 1: 40 characters/line *mode 2: 80 characters/line External equipment (like a disc drive) can be connected to the the expansion port. There are connectors for cassette recorder, joystick, sound and a centronics-printer port.
