For me, it's more nostalgia. It was the first computer that was "all

So I guess it
works. This thing seems to be made in the same way that the
Sinclair LED wristwatch I once had was--CHEAP is the biggest consideration.
Exactly. And don't care if it works properly, or if it's convenient to
use. Remember Sinclair once sold a scientific calculator that gave you 3
accureate significant figures if you were lucky!
I really don't understand the love of Sinclair products. IU'd much rather
have nad use something DEC or HP, or one of the many other companies that
didn't cut every possible corner and then some impossible ones. But then
collectores are often strange.
