  OLD-COMPUTERS.COM : The Museum
The Sharp MZ 700 series replaced the aging MZ 80 (MZ 80K, MZ 80A and MZ 80B) series.
Moreover, the MZ 700 was compatible with the MZ 80K and MZ 80A.
The MZ 700 series is composed of four machines: the first three models were launched in 1983 (November 1982 in Japan) and the last one was launched in late 1985 (in fact, this one is the "ancestor" of the MZ 800):

Moreover, the MZ 700 is compatible with the MZ 80K.
The sharp MZ 800 is the successor of the MZ 780.
Like the MZ 700, there is no language in ROM, it has to be loaded from tape, quick disk or floppy disk.

 MiniDisc T-Station Equipment Review Database MZ-R700
The 700 is a good unit, although the build quality on the newer budget priced MDLP models are definitely inferior to those of old.
Compared to other MD units, the 700 has a loud motor especially when first turning on the player or at the end of the disk and esp intermitantly when recording.
Anyway the 700 performed well in terms of expected sound quality, although you might not realise it because of the crappy earphones that came with it.

 SiliconCave • SHARP
Sharp MZ line is so-called "clean" Z80 computer: the only software in the ROM is bootloader and everything else must be loaded from tape or disk, including the BASIC programming language.
So the MZ80 and MZ 700, although less advanced, especially on the graphics side, are still much more common all over the world.
Zdenek Adler's website is not only home to his (mildly commercial) MZ emulator for a PC, but in fact to the whole SHARP community in the Czech and Slovak republics, along with the Pandora Conference (see bellow).

 The Digital Dungeon
- the fourth model was the MZ 780 which was actually a MZ 731 with a 80 columns card, a floppy disk drive and a Centronics port.
The games were a bit poor because of the low resolution (which was actually graphical characters), but there were 512 graphic characters in ROM, which can be used to offset it (sort of).
It will be replaced with the MZ 800.

was the Sharp MZ-700 (as you can tell by the picture above, one sexy machine :) The Sharp MZ-700 was a Z-80 based machine that ran at 4Mhz, had 64 KB RAM, 8 colour video.

If any, Sharp's MZ-700 which followed straight after the Commodore 64 might be the first similar class machine though its expressiveness is much poorer.
Anyway, the PC-6001 series couldn't keep long hit since NEC abandoned the series rapidly (it became too powerful to coexist with NEC's main PC-8801 series).
As a result slightly higher rank high resolution computers such as PC-8801 series, Fujitsu's FM-7 series and Sharp's X1 series etc. grew in popularity.
