Actually, there was no real success of Acorn in Germany, ever. The number of boxes shifted were always low, even compared to most other Continental Europe markets.

There are many reasons for this, and I think lack of internationalization (we had a territory, but comparably few software packages used German) was not in the Top 10.

Anyway, there is even a German Territory available for both the latest RISC OS Select and RISC OS 5. But this is only due to the heroic efforts of Detlef Thielsch@a4com.
