In reality the machines were fairly low specification, having shadow mask screens, minimal onboard peripherals, and using low end processors with the minimum memory and hard disk size at each price point. Television advertising for the brand in the UK used the slogan Take your mind for a run . Aesthetics The machines were coloured off white, which was unusual at the time, since most machines were beige. Generally the cases were compact and offered little room for expansion. One notable aspect was the original Ambra mouse, which differed from almost all other designs in the position of its buttons. Conventional mice have the buttons on top the user clicks by pressing down. The Ambra mouse had the buttons on the front, either side of the cable the user clicked by pulling their finger backward, in a manner similar to squeezing a trigger. Criticisms led to Ambra changing to a more conventional design one UK magazine review described the mouse ... ru AMBRA ComputerCorporation ... more details
