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 machines and producers from this era were :
- Commodore 64 (C64) (USA)
- ZX Spectrum (ZX80, ZX81, Sinclair ZX) (UK)
- Thomson (MO5, TO7...) (France)
- ACORN (BBC)
- MSX Standard (various producers, yet a Z80 based technology)
