...16 bit cpu, 8 bit data bus, 256 bytes of main memory, 16k of video memory that the cpu had to use for actual program/data memory (access was convoluted and slow), and basic was written in some other language so it was effectively double interpreted.
Such a wasted CPU... Some very odd design choices in this one
