No, it looks more like a misunderstanding. The Vector 3 was an 8-bit machine with 64K of RAM.
https://web.archive.org/web/20110925031455/http://www.vector... The arrival of the IBM PC (and PC-DOS/MS-DOS) in 1981 was an extinction-level event for the CP/M-based, mostly-Z80-based, 8-bit business microcomputer industry. Vector did not weather it. |

Downside of how much tech has changed is stuff gets missed in a copy edit because the numbers sound so silly (to modern ears) they assume I haven't screwed up a typo or find/replace.
I'll flag it.
