Happy 30th Birthday ZX Spectrum !!Have a rubbery keyed one! :)
Happy 30th Birthday ZX Spectrum, and thank you for all the fun.
I can hardly believe it was 30 years ago I was talking about the new Sinclair Colour Computer. We then went and bought a VIC 20, oh well never mind, we got a Spectrum in the end. -

Well we actually had a VIC 20 before we got our +3. I must admit, I never felt the +3 was the upgrade it ought to have been. I think we'd have been better off going for a C64 or direct to an Amiga, which was our next machine.6502 silicon simulatorHi, Anything like this available for the Z80?

[QUOTE=fog;637888]whats the point.. it's not the WHOLE picture ? [/QUOTE]
It *is* the whole picture. The Visual 6502 project is about the 6502, not about the C64, VIC-20 or any other microcomputer. They are focusing on the 6502 CPU.If The Spectrum Never Existed...Out of curiosity...
