TIMEX-SINCLAIR TS2068

In 1983, TIMEX developed a computer after realizing that the ZX Spectrum 48K would not be too competitive in the North American market. TS2068 was that computer: a compatible one, but completely redesign by USA’s TIMEX engineering teams. These computers had cartridges, two joystick entries and AY-3-8912 sound. Unfortunately, in 1984, TIMEX backed out of the microcomputer business in the USA, and Portugal was the one that kept it going.
Curiosities:

Even though it was very similar to the Portuguese TC2068, it had a visual and aesthetic difference that was obvious, beside its’ name tag. Can you figure it out? It is in the bottom left-hand corner.
