occasionally acerbic, cultural and political comment
The humble ZX Spectrum is 25 years old.
Bedroom coders of the world, rejoice!
I had a Commodore 64
The ZX and C64 debate used to divide the playground when I was young.
I had an Acorn Electron and then a C64 for a little while before I invested in an Amiga. All hail the Commodore Amiga!!!
Heh - I also suffered the curse of the Electron - very hard to persuade pals it was a patch on their rubber button wonders - Jet Set Willy beat BBC Basic every time as killer feature! (still, better than the Dragon 32 I got as my first one)
You had a couple of real stinkers their dude. What possesed my mother to buy an Electron?
