Just seeing those covers gave me a huge nostalgia-trip, from my own time programming the ZX Spectrum in the 80s. (First in BASIC, then in Z80 assembly via the fine manual.)
- pjmlp 9y agoLovely! Have you also used the Input magazines? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_(magazine) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Input_(magazine)
- stevekemp 9y agoNo, that's something I don't think I've ever seen before. I used to read a few of the Spectrum magazines back in the day, Your Sinclair, Sinclair User, etc. But over time they all dumbed down and started to be more about advertising and game-reviews, rather than having a mixture of programming-content and other stuff. I did get some POKEs printed though, so it wasn't all bad!
- zubairq 9y agoI loved the input magazines. I’ll have to dig out my old ones ! I think we only had them in the uk though?
- pjmlp 9y agoThey were widely available on the Iberian Penisula as well.
