I would like to say that it has taught me how to make-a-chip, but I can't
funny you should say that ive gone from make a chip on the speccy and now make circuit boards...........hasnt helped me learn about making em tbh, but strangely it seems to be a path ive followed?

I learn BASIC and machine code programming on the speccy. As a direct consequence of which I'm in the software industry. It can't get more educational than that.
Oh, and I also learnt Chess on Psion Chess and how to put gameplay over graphics. ;)
I've learned that my mother can still disturb the modern-day version of the Chuntey ... the WiFi always goes haywire when she enters the room, offering cookies and tea.

Maybe not on the Spectrum but i learned a lot about the ancient cvilisations from Civ, the Native Americans from Colonizsation and the Romans from CivCity Rome.
I've became quite interested in the Romans now, i've watched some documentries about various battles and their way of life. Very interesting.

The basics of computer programming via Sinclair Basic and its excellent manual/complete BASIC course by Steven Vickers.
Machine Code via such titles as Machine Code for the Absolute Beginner by William Tang and The Complete Machine Code Tutor by New Generation Software. (This is the best software based Z80 tutor IMHO.)
Learned more mathematics via this book then in 5 years of GCSE Mathematics.

I also learned that it's even worse when they make a game out if it :D
