Bummer. At least with Sinclair stuff it's pretty cut and dried as far as
historians are concerned. I've just got to avoid giving them the chance to
'big up' something that has no reason to be, eg anything above the rubber
key 48k spectrum.
Makes me wonder whether I should mention that the ZX80 should never have
existed in that form and that the ZX81 was what the ZX80 should've been :)
cheers

Brilliant! Just as the previous 'talking to the press' thread
has
vanished
from my classiccmp folder after I thought 'I
won't need that' one of the
broadsheets want to talk to me about collecting and collectables!
Can anyone give me a precis of the previous thread before I go
search the
archives?
Sure : Don't do it. The reporters only misquote or misinterpret what you
say, and you end up looking a right idiot (as I did in the Popular
Science article :-().
