[edit] SAM Coupé

I took the SAM Coupé out - it isn't a Spectrum clone, it was simply made partially Spectrum compatible in an effort to show it as a natural upgrade (one, incidentally, that failed) Jamyskis 13:35, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup needed

This article was proposed for deletion on 2006-12-21 with the concerns that "Wikipedia is not a repository of links, Wikipedia is not a directory and Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information". While I fully agree with those concerns (this isn't a good article at the moment), I feel that cleanup would be a better way of proceeding here: a simple and fairly informative article could be made by stripping the list down to just those machines for which articles exists, and adding a one or two sentence description of each. However... I don't have time to do this at the moment, and will be away from my Internet connection for the next week or so, so if anybody else wants to have a go at this article, please do so. If not, I'll try something in the New Year. Cheers --Pak21 22:13, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Merged with individual articles, cleanup still required

I've merged in the contents of most of the previously linked articles and converted those articles to redirects to here. Some remain as separate articles where there is sufficient contents to justify the separate article.

Many of the merged in sections still require work on their wording to clean up some opinions and speculation. Improving the consistency of the information given about each example would also improve things. --BrucePodger (talk) 14:10, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
