@[url=https://atomicpoet.org/users/atomicpoet]Chris Trottier[/url] basically the CPC is Alan Sugar (the British Donald Trump, literally: he was the boss in the UK version of The Apprentice) trying to make his own version of the BBC Micro out of a box of bits he found cheap somewhere.
The thing is, he actually did a half decent job.
It’s just that nobody wanted a Z80 based BBC Micro clone, and certainly not when the 8 bit era was drawing to a close.
