CP 300 was a personal microcomputer produced by Prológica, a computer company located in Brazil , and introduced in 1983.[1][2][3]

General information

It was compatible in software and hardware with the American TRS-80 Model III, and could be considered a domestic and cheaper version of the CP 500, since it was supplied with only one cabinet containing the CPU and a "gum" keyboard. The power supply was external to the cabinet.[4]

Data Storage

Audio cables were supplied with the computer for connection with a regular tape recorder.[4]

Accessories

  • CP 300 Printer.[4]
