My first own computer was a Spectravideo 328, which fought for superiority with the Commodore 64. Spectravideo had significantly more memory :). With additional devices from Spectravideo you got a versatile computer. In the end, my configuration included an expansion unit (80 character card, centronigs connection, memory expansion, RS232 serial communication card and 5.1/2″ floppy drive), a Spectravideo dot matrix printer, an modem, a cassette drive and color monitor. The operation system was Spectravideo Basic and the CP/M operating system.
