Hi guys, I wanted to share this gem with you, its the CPC Amstrad prototype!


(http://www.cpcwiki.eu/imgs/thumb/3/3d/GA_high_res.JPG/800px-GA_high_res.JPG)

I first read about it in the first Retro gamer magazine Vol 2 iss #6

The computer story is an interesting one and the original article was quite extensive, 2 pages, and all I can find online are 3 relevant results! the above link being the best.

This also demonstrates how good the Mag has been IMO

Keep looking in those skips, Last one sold went for £620 in 2005!

That is even uglier than the released version  :4:

Are you sure that's not just a normal Amstrad exposed in a sunny shop window for a few months?

Heh.
