R.I.P. Sir Clive Sinclair.
my first discussions about personal computers, on the pre-forum times, where the passionate conversations about vic 20 (that were very expensive and available at my school computer lab) vs the zx-80 .The zx-80 become the market the winner, with a insanely low price for the time. My first one was the ZX Spectrum with the tape, it was so "fast" to load the games and play. Well, the floppy disk were nicer, but a 5.25" floppy reader for a commodore cost more that an spectrum with a tape player. I do not recall if they were available for the spectrum.
