What is the difference between the PC-8201 and the
PC-8201A? I've got two
PC-8201As, and what *seems* to be an PC-8201. It's a different, bronze,
colour and has "NEC PC-8201" printed on the top left-hand corner. However,
the silver sticker on the bottom of the computer says it is a PC-8201A.
The most obvious difference is the japanese characters on the keyboard.
The "[" key in the lower right corner (next to the spacebar) is instead a
toggle key (like capslock or grph) that switches into japanese mode. It
also says "personal computer" under PC-8201 next to the screen, whereas my
8201a doesn't. On the back, the silver sticker is written in japanese.
