inmanouverable isn't an english word or?

i used the 128k one (which had a semi-proper keyboard), first, but picked up a couple of 48Ks later, second-hand. it heated up quite a bit too. i always say it's like a little cute kitten on your lap

the Speccy 'chicklets' keyboard WAS cute... oddly enough pressing those rubber keys seemed oddly interesting.

that 14 sec includes the "leader tone" whic doesn't have any data in it.

Machforr, i just tested for you, a speccy will save 1KB in 14 seconds i dunno if the ZX81 had the same ROM routines for save/load but it is possible they were similar, some of that ROM was borrowed & enhanced

My friend's dad was from France.. and he brought it with him I think.. but yes, the spectrums were rare in Canada
