In the early days of educational computing when publishers were eager to present schools with a comprehensive list of software. Five Ways Software, a company devoted to well researched and tested educational programs, was engaged by several major publishers to produce programs for the schools list. Much of the resulting software appeared only in educational catalogues— but, as an experiment, some publishers transferred the programs to more popular micros, re-packaged them and made them generally available. Ironically, in some instances the programs were improved in the process and documentation and packaging were superior to the schools version. The programs produced by Five Ways Software for Heinemann Education and later released on the Spectrum 48K for the home market were taken over by another publisher, Hill MacGibbon, who were building up a list of quality programs — 'Games to stretch the mind', exam revision courses and educational software.

Page créée en 159 millisecondes et consultée 1180 foisL'Amstrad CPC est une machine 8 bits à base d'un Z80 à 4MHz. Le premier de la gamme fut le CPC 464 en 1984, équipé d'un lecteur de cassettes intégré il se plaçait en concurrent du Commodore C64 beaucoup plus compliqué à utiliser et plus cher. Ce fut un réel succès et sorti cette même années le CPC 664 équipé d'un lecteur de disquettes trois pouces intégré. Sa vie fut de courte durée puisqu'en 1985 il fut remplacé par le CPC 6128 qui était plus compact, plus soigné et surtout qui avait 128Ko de RAM au lieu de 64Ko. |
