Amstrad 6256 Retro Advert

You know, I actually remember this advert. This word-processor (when they used to be dedicated machines) was aired circa 1985 – one of my favourite lines is “has a big 256K Memory.” Wow, really? But then we have to remember this was the time when the 128K spectrum had just been released… And all this for a paltry £465 ($930.) Actually the printer was with it, and was aimed squarely at the office market (as you can tell at the end of the ad.)
