  • what made the spectrum.........what in your opinion made the zx spectrum's so popular in the 80's and why? [img]/__forums/images/smiles/icon_smile.gif[/img] octave

    Low price, you don?t need to buy a monitor (very expensive in that years), easy to use, if you only wants fun just type LOAD"" and press PLAY, a lot of games to play, all that any child of the 80's wanted.

    Spares? Well the ZX81 is pretty common as I understand so you'd probably be better off just trying to buy a whole new one.
    Or you could try hooking up a PC keyboard to the ZX81 with a hefty deal of screwdriver work and soldering.
