[mention]Nomad[/mention] What you are describing sounds more like the Amstrad PCW. These came with a green screen and printer and were popular as office machines. I remember when I first started working at a College in the early 90s we chucked out hundreds off them which had been used in the secretarial classes.

The CPC range, especially the earlier CPC464 was most definitely aimed at the games player to compete with the ZX and C64.It was always third place in the UK, but very popular in France apparently.

Although even the PCW has a cracking port of Head Over Heels.
