Amstrad PCW 9512

Amstrad · 1987

The PCW with a daisywheel printer instead of the dot-matrix, sold to people who needed letters that looked typed rather than printed. That printer is the whole difference and the reason the 9512 cost more; it is also heavy, loud, and the first thing to fail. A complete working example with its own printer and daisywheels is uncommon.
