New to Sinclair

Post by mikeyp »

Hi all

I've just posted in hardware but spotted this section and figure I should say hi here also.

I've worked with all sorts of computers but I have zero experience with Sinclairs. ’ve been blessed enough to inherit my Grandpa’s Sinclair Spectrum +3 128k and his ZX81. He’s still alive but has no use for them any more and wants to see my enjoy them. Both machines are cosmetically in lovely condition and the spectrum works flawlessly save needing a new drive belt.

Now is the time to join this community and enjoy some computers older than me! :lol:

Check my post in hardware to see photos of what I've been given.

Welcome from me also Mikeyp. :D

Rest assured that any help you need will be given.

I had a programming problem a few days ago and got three solutions from guys in France, Denmark and Hungary in double quick time!

You are in good company here.


Regards.

Moggy.
