24 bytes added, 9 December
By 1989, 1.5 million units had been sold [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amstrad_PCW Source].
The Daily Telegraph estimated in 2000 that 100,000 were still in use in the UK.

== Differences to the CPC ==
The PCW had its biggest success in the UK, where it is even used up to today in some branches, e.g. small hotels.
In Germany, Schneider mainly marketed it as word-processing system, not outlining its usability for other purposes, so that professional users decided for IBM compatible PCs.
