Added the Dick Smith Cat, an Apple II clone and made a few small corrections:

  • The VZ-200 and VZ-300 were not compatible with any Tandy computer, though they had some similarities to the TRS-80.
  • Changed produced to sold for the Dick Smith brand computers. The Dick Smith brand computers were re-badged models of computers produced by EACA (System 80) and Video Technology (VZ-200, VZ-300 and Cat).
  • "he paid for it to be included free in the popular electronics magazines such...Silicon Chip". I've removed Silicon Chip from this list. Silicon Chip was founded (1987) several years after Dick Smith had sold the company (1982).
