The Amstrads are a few years younger than that, actually.
In 1980, you'd be able to get an Acorn, Sinclair or
Tangerine system, or you could buy a Compukit UK101 in
kit form.  Then there's the Nascom, Research Machines,
and possibly a few others.

I've got in touch with the original poster, BTW.  The
company's previous series was called Look Around You,
and I think it featured a Commodore PET 2001.
