@nina_kali_nina The Apricot range were nice machines although as you say not that IBM PC compatable (quite a few British machines of the time were IBM PC-ish but not compatable) The screen was great to look at for hours and hours without eyestrain. I did quite a few of my early contracts programming them. Mostly using the Alpha database although iirc Dataease and Sensible Solution DB/4GL and I think TAS and Multisoft/MOSS ran on it too
