The Micro-Professor MPF-I is a microcomputer developed by Multitech (later Acer) and released in 1981. It was the company's first branded product and served as a training system for learning machine code and assembly language for the Zilog Z80 microprocessor. After releasing several iterations of the product, Acer sold the product line to Flite Electronics in 1993.
