VZ-ALiVE: Archive of the VZ 200, VZ 300 and related computers.

There are several 8-bit computers based on the same technology from Video Technology (aka V-Tech).

These computers are one and the same and are based on the Tandy TRS-80 computer. They use the Zilog Z80 microprocessor and 16k ROM of Microsoft BASIC, graphics supplied by a Motorola 6847 video chip and sound from a piezo speaker.

VZ-ALiVE is the main site for downloading the VZEM emulator and associated utilities. It has comprehensive technical information regarding VZ emulation and development.
