This #RetroWeekend I will have a look at the #Lambda8300. It is a #ZX81 clone from 1983 that was made in Hong Kong. It was sold worldwide under different names, like PC 8300, DEF 3000, Tonel PC, Futura 8300, Power 3000.
Although it's a clone, there are a few, but major differences. It has 2KB of internal RAM (ZX81 had only 1KB), a slightly different character set, it could make sound, and BASIC keywords could be typed out (ZX81 had the keywords assigned to individual keys).
