What it appears is that NEC sold, at least in the US, several variations, all named PC8801A. I do not know what this one cost new, I'm sure it wasn't cheap, especially with the 16 bit card. When you boot off floppy, you hold down a key to switch it to 16 bit mode so it boots MS-DOS, otherwise it runs in 8 bit mode and wants a CP/M disk. This particular one has OK graphics, I'm not sure what the color capabilities are as I do not have a color monitor that can work with it. There are more recent versions of this which were used as development system for the TurboGrafix-16 console (friend of mine had one of those back in the day, pretty decent) and that version of the PC8801A had the same graphics and sound chips as the TurboGrafix. If they sold more than 10 of these in the US I would be amazed, even the retro guys on YouTube get theirs from Japan. I'm sure the one I have wasn't exactly a hot seller in the US either, although it did come out just before the IBM PC became the 'standard'
Another oddball another friend of mine had was an Epson. I vaguely recall it also had some sort of dual processor system, and some other differentiating factors from other MS-DOS machines - perhaps higher density floppies and I think they had a proprietary system of applications where you could hit a button on the keyboard to fire up the word processor, another button brought up a spreadsheet, etc.
