Sinclair PC200
The Sinclair PC 200 is a PC-XT clone with 512KByte RAM. It has MDA video (Text only) and a math co-processor.
The machine is a black version of the Amstrad PC-20. It features a 8086 CPU, 2 ISA slots and came with DOS 3.3.
The PC-20 has a micro-computer like case, with the keyboard and computer in one. This causes problems if one tries to use the ISA slots, you can only use expansion cards, if you leave the flap of the computer case open.

The Z80 quickly became popular in the personal computer market, with many early personal computers, such as the TRS-80 and Sinclair ZX80, using the Z80 as their central processing unit (CPU). It was also widely used in home computers, such as the MSX range, SORD, and the Amstrad CPC, as well as in many arcade games. Additionally, it was also used in other applications such as industrial control systems, and embedded systems. The Z80 was widely used until the mid-1980s, when it was gradually replaced by newer microprocessors such as the Intel 80286 and the Motorola 68000.
The Z80 microprocessor was developed by Zilog, a company founded by Federico Faggin in 1974. The Z80 was released in July 1976, as a successor to the Intel 8080. It was designed to be fully compatible with the 8080, but also included new features such as an improved instruction set, more powerful interrupts, and a more sophisticated memory management system.
