Started in the 90s was wildly successful at selling home computers to the UK public. However the company went into administration in 2002 due to the inability to sell anymore computers because well… No one needed a new computer. (Capitalism is an efficient system)

I remember playing age of empires on one of these things.

    You say this but I was still using floppies in the early 2000s and didn’t really start using USB until i got my “vista ready” laptop in 2007. The mouse and keyboard outlasted the Tiny PC as well staying until they basically dissolved. Even the printer stuck around for a while until it became unusable

    But yes also not expanding outside the UK market didn’t help at all
