Promoting this movie has been an honor and I am... Read Full Story
It seems a life time ago when the Sinclair ZX81 was the considered the height the technology, yet when we think bad there was little that could be done with this machine as this was the pioneering days of personal computing. There was not even a proper market established back them, but we still knew that small unassuming device was the future, we just had to wait for everything to catch it up.
But now it seems that the Sinclair ZX81 is able to perform with the rest of the big... Read Full Story

When it comes to the early days of home computing, a lot of people seem to focus on the American side of things, with the likes of Apple, Commodore, and Atari featured prominently. Not that there’s anything wrong with that - these companies helped change the world of computing forever.

I hadn’t really been looking forward to Main Street , having read Sinclair Lewis’s Elmer Gantry a few years ago and not particularly caring for it. I’ve been puttering around with Main Street since January. It’s one of those that I would read a few chapters, put it down, then pick it up a gain a few weeks later.

The system includes a microphone port, audio... Read Full Story

Sinclair Oil believed that the oldest crude oils... Read Full Story
