ELWRO 800‑3 Junior

The Elwro 800 is a ZX Spectrum clone produced by ELWRO for use in schools. It runs a special version of CP/M called CP/J.

The computer had a full size keyboard, and even a paper/document holder. The reason for the latter is that the machine shares the same case as the Elwirka electronic keyboard, which had provisions for holding sheet music.

It even has a local area network ability which is called JUNET. This allowed the teacher to monitor the students in the class what they were doing on their computers.

The Elwro 800 was produced between 1986 and 1990. In 1990 there was a successor called the Junior 804 which has a built-in 3,5" floppy drive and resembles the Commodore 128. It's unclear if it actually came to production, sources say it's only a prototype but other sources say it's produced until 1991
