Same thing happened to my Step-Mum who had brought an Apricot computer and would type up letters and such-like for people/businesses who wanted something that looked more professional but once businesses could buy a PCW they could do it themselves and she lost an income stream, lucky that PPI ended up paying off the Apricot and later on she did have an Amstrad PC1512/1640 that we acquired much later on.
