As always is the case, Speccy > Commodore64. Us spectrum kids used to smoke behind the bike sheds while commobores stayed behind for extra maths. 

The recommended games from the magazines were given cooler names too. The Spectrum's "Crash Smash" sounded way better than a "Zzap! SiZZler".

I bloody love Sir Clive, I have an awful lot to thank him for. However he will always remind me of the excellent Micro Men, especially the best reaction to bad news ever.

 

First thing I think of every time he's mentioned, especially this scene which is how I now imagine him talking.

I got him to sign my ZX81 user manual the day I bought it from WHSmiths in Manchester.  He was doing a demo of the new 16k Spectrum.

What a man Clive Sinclair was. True visionary. RIP my man.

Did Sam Fox’s game not come out on the Spectrum?

It did, but at the time it was £14.99, and in them days you could buy a house for that.

When I was in school there was a kid who claimed his dad had it and said he would make tapes of it for a couple quid. Of course it was total bollocks.

It was the only one we couldn’t get on pirate mix tapes.  No one had the bollocks to buy it to copy.

Anybody that got a "ham shank" to that pixellated image needs their heads looked at it. Nothing there. She is rather well endowed, but it's shadowed.,,,,unfortunately...

ADDED: Anybody else spotted the rise of "porn mags" discarded on the street like it's 1992? It's mental.

Clive Sinclair basically invented the "Mobility Scooter" for disabled people. Other people added shit to it, but Clive did the first prototype (with his Electric Car thingy), which kind of moves like a "Mobility Scooter".

Baz.  I’m from a time when the front page of The TVTimes was the best porn we could get our hands on, so we were very adaptable.
