MGT produced an almost-compatible ROM which (since it wasn't Sinclair code) they were allowed to distribute. It ran some (not many) Spectrum games. It also had NMI code, which the Spectrum ROM had to be modified to add (I started working on this to implement my own multi-page emulator, but gave up when I got Lerm SamTape (?)).
