I know, but Brazil back then had import barriers on computers, cars and most of technological products in favor of national industry.
The first MSX was manufacured and commercialized only after 1985, although we had an Apple II clone (TK 2000, my first computer), ZX and TRS national clones. The first IBM PC/XT clone was lauched in 1985 as well, by Itautec.
Small correction: it wasn't launched in 1985 - I bought mine (A Philips VG-8000) in 1983.
