Older stocks of the 128k Spectrum are being sold off at ever cheaper prices with Dixons dropping their price to an astonishing £89.95. This is for the machine only, without any software packs or joystick, but it’s still a great deal. The Spectrum is still outselling its nearest rival the Commodore 64 by two-to-one according to the newly released Christmas sales figures, and the new +3 machine will hopefully see this continuing. Many magazines have started to speculate just what this new promised machine will look like with Sinclair User printing a really odd looking artists impression. For the real thing though, we shall have to wait a bit longer. GRANGE HILL MICRO LIVE CUT The poplar television show Grange Hill will soon be available The BBC on your Spectrum.

  • [Japan] SALA GIOCHI ARCADE 1000 Miglia
    SCHEDA NEW PLATINUM PI4 EDITION La seguente lista elenca la maggior parte dei titoli emulati dalla scheda NEW PLATINUM Pi4 (20.000). - I giochi per computer (Amiga, Commodore, Pc, etc) richiedono una tastiera per computer e talvolta un mouse USB da collegare alla console (in quanto tali sistemi funzionavano con mouse e tastiera). - I giochi che richiedono spinner (es. Arkanoid), volanti (giochi di corse), pistole (es. Duck Hunt) potrebbero non essere controllabili con joystick, ma richiedono periferiche ad hoc, al momento non configurabili. - I giochi che richiedono controller analogici (Playstation, Nintendo 64, etc etc) potrebbero non essere controllabili con plance a levetta singola, ma richiedono, appunto, un joypad con analogici (venduto separatamente). - Questo elenco è relativo alla scheda NEW PLATINUM EDITION basata su Raspberry Pi4. - Gli emulatori di sistemi 3D (Playstation, Nintendo64, Dreamcast) e PC (Amiga, Commodore) sono presenti SOLO nella NEW PLATINUM Pi4 e non sulle versioni Pi3 Plus e Gold. - Gli emulatori Atomiswave, Sega Naomi (Virtua Tennis, Virtua Striker, etc.) sono presenti SOLO nelle schede Pi4. - La versione PLUS Pi3B+ emula solo 550 titoli ARCADE, generati casualmente al momento dell'acquisto e non modificabile.

    The ZX Spectrum on your PC Emulators, utilities and more C Woodcock www.cwoodcock.co.uk/zxf ZXF Magazine www.cwoodcock.co.uk/zxf Copyright © 2004 Colin Woodcock First published 2004 by CafePress.com Acknowledgements My thanks to Paul Dunn, Nick Humphries and Jonathan Needle for the valuable suggestions that came out of their proof-reading of the first draft of this book. Thanks also to Matthew Westcott for helping me to understand TR-DOS a little better. ZXF magazine delights in reporting on the achievements of the members of the Spectrum community and is indebited to them all for their efforts. In particular, ZXF could not have achieved its current distribution without the hosting offered by Martijn van der Heide at www.worldofspectrum.org, whose own contribution to the Spectrum scene goes well beyond the easily measurable. Contents Preface vii 1 Emulator basics 1 2 Finding files 15 3 Peripherals 19 4 Emulator extras 27 5 Utilities 32 6 Russian clones; TR-DOS 44 7 Other emulators 49 Appendix I: Key websites 58 Appendix II: Key documents 61 Appendix III: comp.sys.sinclair 63 Index 67 for Jack Preface So you've finally realised. You think that new technology is great - of course you do - but ever since you packed away that old Spectrum in a box and taped up the lid something has most definitely been missing. At last you understand you were turning your back on more than just an obsolete computer. The good news is that you don't have to fish the box out from under the bed just yet (or lament its sale on ebay or at the local car boot): the Spectrum is one of the most emulated computers (if not the most emulated computer) on the planet and the quality of its emulation is just superb.

  • Interview with an Ex-ACG (Ashby Computers & Graphics) Employee
    Interview With An Ex-ACG (Ashby Computers & Graphics) Employee Background Over the past few months on the ultimate-wurlde.com site, I've alluded to an ongoing conversation with someone who used to work for 'Ultimate', and I promised to reveal some of the secrets that this source had disclosed to me. However, you can't just blunder into this kind of thing! Firstly, you have to build up a degree of trust; I need to assure my source that I'm not going to blurt out something given in good faith (and in confidence), and I need to feel happy that I'm not being hoaxed by some prankster! Trust was duly established, and after some to-ing and fro-ing between us, I've finally managed to get around to conducting an 'interview' via email... December 2001 The Interview Rob: Hi, and thanks for agreeing to be interviewed! First off; what is your relationship with Ultimate? ACG: I was employed there for quite a few years up until just before the US Gold takeover. I never worked on the programming side when I was employed at AC&G although I did get to mingle with the programmers quite regularly as we were a relatively small, close and friendly group of employees. These days I work elsewhere, but I still remain in contact with them! Rob: Given how hard it is to get ex-AC&G people to talk, I assume that there was some kind of policy not to talk to anyone outside of the company - one that still seems to be in place? ACG: The quietness UPTG showed towards the press was not intentional and came about purely by accident.
