From Clive Sinclair with love... this year saw the arrival of the ZX Spectrum - remembered as the "dear old Speccy" today, but the thrill of the new in '82.
From ZX Computing - an article about the launch of the ZX Spectrum.
Complete with rubber keys...
Personal Computer Magazine - apparently the biggest selling micro magazine in the UK way back then.
Tempted by an Apple? Microcomputers at Laskys in 1982.
Your Computer, February 1982 - with info on the ZX 81 Rubik's Cube master...
The Cube twisting key tapping way to success...
Fancy a "real" computer from Texas Instruments?
Or "broader horizons" with the BBC Microcomputer System?
