The Apricot computerline was created and sold by Apricot Computers PLC, formerly known as Applied Computer Techniques. ACT was a British company, founded in 1965 as a mainframe time-leasing company. They changed their name to Apricot Computers in 1985, reflecting their change in focus to selling a line of personal computers. Apricot Computers was closed in 1999 by then-parent company Mitsubishi Electric.
