I thought i was out of this arguement but your comments are just to broad with no eye to detail....GarryG wrote:Hmmm, It seems to me that if you take the ‘Global Appeal’ argument then the BBC would fall even further down the food chain. You would have to give some massive space over to Atari and Apple, cos both had huge sales in America, that would blow the UK sales out of the water!!!
At the end on the day this type of this is a bit ‘swings and roundabouts’.
RG is a British magazine and the top three British games machines in terms of ‘British’ sales were undoubtedly the Spectrum, commodore, and Amstrad; in that order!!
I knew more CPC owners than C64 owners but that counts for precisly squat! What matters is the actual sales figures themselves, and the C64 sold more than the CPC in the UK. We can bicker all day about the Acorn but the software sales charts and the actual machine sales figures don't lie.Randall Flagg wrote:

Firstly if we are dealing with british sales only then I'm not sure if the C64 would beat the amstrad. I knew a lot more amstrad owners that c64 owners in the UK but I am aware that this would be different from area to area.
Secondly, when are you actually talking about as there was a time when Speccy, C64 and BBC were about and amstrad wasn't.
