Olivetti Prodest PC128

Autopsy:

The Prodest PC-128 was a rebadged and slightly redesigned version of the French Thomson MO6, apart from case design touching up, technical features was the same as the MO6.

The Prodest PC-128 has two versions of BASIC on ROM both made by Microsoft. Almost all memory (101 KB) was accessible with BASIC thanks to a transparent 16 KB bank switching mechanism. An optional 3.5″ floppy disk drive (640 KB) was available. This machine seems having been sold in very small quantity in Italy.
