ZX Spectrum #2

This classic British home computer of 1982, affectionately known as the Speccy, was loveable for so many things. It had colour (clashing), squelchy sound (mono), and a rubber keyboard (not great for typists) which put it far and away ahead of its predecessor the ZX81 (b/w, silent, touchpad).

I personally never owned a ZX Spectrum but they are still making modern versions and I definitely will have one, one day.

Thankfully machines have come on so far that you can now emulate a Speccy in the browser and play your favourite games of old.
