Cool... but what does the Spectrum play? I guess I never heard of it, I'm not a big time retro game fan.

The spectrum was a cracking old machine from way back in the 80s.

That was the first computer I had and it is where I first dipped my toes into the ocean that is software engineering. I started out with a 48k rubber keyed version which I really loved.

I will be trying the spectrum emulator out later tonight. Hopefully great memories will come flooding back :)
