30 years of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum

[nathanscribe]

Today is the 30th birthday of the humble speccy! I used to love programming that little thing, rubber keys and wobbly interfaces and overheating and all... BASIC, assembler, and cassette storage... attribute clash, BEEP, and R Tape loading error 0:1... love it.

(There are two small bugs in the game; first person to spot them and correct them wins a tiny, tiny prize that I haven't thought of yet)

We old, bro'. We old. Reminds me of a time when even me being 30 years old was a lifetime away!

I wrote a tiny (<2KB) disassembler for that thing, in some very late nights.
