Cheshire Cat was the brainchild of Lynn Nixon, Ann Mortimer and Patricia Lansdowne.Between them, the three women have seven children — Lynn and Ann have two and Patricia has three. Patricia said: “That was one of the main reasons why we decided to start Cheshire C at. We all had Dragons at home, but there was just no good educational software out for the Dragon that the children could use." Patricia and Ann used to run a computer bureau together, and Patricia met Lynn, a former programmer at UMIST. because their daughters were in the same class at school. The three decided to combine their talents to produce some educational programs. They enlisted the help of friends in teaching, programming and business, and Cheshire Cat is now growing rapidly. Each program may involve as many as seven people, and is tested thoroughly before it goes on the market. According to Patricia: “We use our own children to test the programs under all conditions. They're all very used to computers now — thcv aren't frightened of them at all."

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. |
