Sharp MZ-700

Sharp · 1982

Sharp's colour MZ, and cheap enough to sell in Europe against the Spectrum and C64 — with a plotter-printer option that could be built into the case, which is the detail everybody remembers. No graphics modes, only character cells, which limited its games. The plotter version is the collectable one.
