    I was one of the few whom never owned a ZX Spectrum back in the 80s. I owned an Amstrad CPC instead. A few friends had them so I got to play on them, but the software was mostly inferior to the Amstrad, or the same as a lot of developers were lazy and just did straight ports.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Sorry, I meant to post the first time around but didn't immediately and forgot.

    I actually contributed to the kickstarter of this as I did his earlier Ocean book and have again for volume 2 of this. It arrived last week but I haven't read it yet. I'm not actually particularily interested in the Spectrum, but it does have its place in history as many british developers started out on one. I think the Spectrum really only did well in the UK, but I may be wrong. I never knew anyone that had one back then here anyway.
