Looking forward to messing with this once my display adapter arrives
@decarbonization Oh! Memories! 48k worth of memories!!
@decarbonization I’d say Chuckie Egg. It wasn’t the greatest game, but I think it was the first one I played. The only game I remember playing before that was Pong (?), and that was really basic, even though it felt like magic at the time.
@decarbonization I just happened to download "The Computers That Made Britain" last week, which provides the story of this computer. See wireframe.raspberrypi.org/books/com...
@decarbonization oh wow, where do you get a working Spectrum from? I learned to program in Spectrum Basic!
@leonp if you are feeling patient, you can order a brand new one from RetroRadionics. It has some extra features I am interested in like an SD card drive, and the ability to emulate a ZX81
