The Thomson MO6 was an 6809E-based computer introduced in France in 1986.^[2] It as intended as the successor to the Thomson MO5 and featured 128 KB of RAM, a 40×25 text display, and a new built-in Microsoft BASIC interpreter (BASIC 128).

It retained compatibility with its predecessor, while incorporating the same technology as the TO8.^[3] The MO6 was available until January 1989. In Italy it was sold by Olivetti with little aesthetic changes, and named Olivetti Prodest PC128.
