Me and my dad went to some distant town that I can't remember now to buy one of the first Specrums. The car broke down on the motorway and we had to hitch-hike home.
I ordered a 48K Spectrum but thought they delivered a 16K version. So as a cocky 12ish year old I called sinclair and they sent me a new one. They never asked for the other one back. Always felt guilty over this as the original one was 48K. No wonder they went bump. lol Amazingly, I've shared a poker table with with Sir Clive several times. Who'd have thunk? Amazing man, what's he upto now? Other than playing poker with degenerates?  Mostly drinking, & falling asleep. He's lovely.

This is the gearstick model, although I don't remember seeing one this colour.  My mate Rob had the gear stick model. We had six people on it at the same time. Rob wasn't very happy about it.

LOL finger print free, but shipped in parts? Might just take a wander down to the 2nd hand shop if this is the sort of price they are fetching.

 I can only see a little red cross Tom - what is it? It was one of these, but an old frayed black and white one. (I wonder why you can't see it?)
