The first publicity picture of the
MTX500? Announcing the MTX500 at the Earls Court Computer Fair in June 1983,
if you went to the Memotech stand, you could enter a
competition to win one by getting a High Score on one of
the few MTX games available at the launch.
You can see that the MTX keyboard decoration is quite
different from the released version of the computer.

A
sales brochure for Memotech computers, seen with an
MTX500 sold on ebay in November 2013. I had not seen
this brochure before, but given that it features the
original MTX512 and calls a single disk FDX unit an
"SDX", it is probably around mid 1984, before the
smaller form factor SDX was released. Courtesy of Arthur Leigh |

An interesting snippet from the
Memotech archives, a copy of Memotech's Despatch Records
from late September & early October 1983. Mainly ZX81
peripherals, but also probably some of the very first
MTX orders shipped. The reverse of the pages contains
a handwritten list of disk systems (probably FDX)
exported to various countries up until October 1985 -

Another interesting snippet from Tony - handwritten
notes on the back of the Memotech despatch notes
provided above. The notes list
the dates and numbers of "Disc Systems" supplied to
various countries from April 1984 to October 1985. These
were probably mostly, if not all, FDX systems, through
the entire production run, up until Memotech were in
serious difficulty before the factory closed in February
1986. Sales to Germany outnumbered the combined
total of the others.

Video Wall Brochure This brochure was produced by Memotech Computers Limited,
and I think must have been after Memotech decided to
market the Video Walls themselves, rather than sell them
through their distributor - in the UK, this had been
Cameron Video Systems.
The brochure includes a block diagram of
components in the later Video Wall systems.
