SpeccyJam – and the everlasting appeal of the ZX Spectrum




My first computer. But I had the more upmarket version with 48 Kb of RAM!  Wow!


I still have it. 


I married it to a HP keyboard back in 1983.


I still recall the first review that I read about it. The reviewer wrote that using the rubber keyboard felt like pressing the skin of a dead man!


The world had 'floppy disks' while the Sinclair had 'stringy floppies’!  :-)



ooroo
