I had these machine, however, I never saw CP/M running it. As far I read, was weird, as not had a 80 column mode and the CP/M for it, had a weird trick of panning the screen so the user could see the right half of the 80 column screen.

Much like the luggable Osborne Z-80 computer. It had a very tiny screen and was not a full 80 columns.

I had an amstrad 6128. As far as I remember, I have used CP/M for multiplan and for turbo pascal.
