[edit] Need for separate Dragon Data article?

Do we really need both a Dragon Data and a Dragon 32/64 article?? Linuxlad 22:39, 6 Jan 2005 (UTC)

As the article stands now, you certainly have a valid point there. However, if one could partly base the article on [1] (see below), there is more than enough historical information about the company as such (and, on The DRAGON Archive website, even more info on e.g. other Dragon computers than the 32/64). One should be careful, of course, to avoid copyvios -- i.e. be sure to write the wkp article using the reference as a guide rather than citing too large parts of it. --Wernher 17:17, 8 Jan 2005 (UTC)

If this is going to live on as a separate article, we should mention the attempted partnership with Tano, the eventual sale to the Spanish firm (name escapes me), which was disastrous for the UK users, at a time when Tandy were apparently prepared to take over the UK user base.

[edit] Dragon MSX

Just spotted Commons:Dragon MSX... seems this was made after Dragon Data went into recievership (and obviously there were loads of MSX models, so this isn't especially interesting). Might deserve a line, though? Or maybe not? :) --StuartBrady (Talk) 04:06, 13 September 2006 (UTC)
