Sounds like it (to me anyway), except the lifecycle is shorter.

I think the MZ/ZX series employed the idea of traditional appearance and
operation. However, techanically, they are very different. By that I mean
their internal structures and designs are nothing alike. So, based on this
point, I do not think the MZ/ZX series are the refinement of the good old M
or A series (though they feel alike).

So am I.
