Sellam,
See the following URL (a Portuguese-speaking friend will help) for an
amazing list of micros made in Brazil, almost all of them clones of major
USA and UK models. For example, the ZX-81 clone is called "RITAS DO BRASIL
RINGO R470". Just across the border from Peru? Well maybe, but Rio is a long
way from Lima!
