This looks beautiful. I learned BASIC and assembler programming on the Spectrum and it occupies a special place in my heart. My mother told me recently that I used to ask her to read out the code from magazines while I would type them in to the spectrum. I have a vivid memory of typing in long strings of hex from magazines to create graphics programs - kind of proto-photoshop things. The programmer had split them into strings of 256 characters each and when you first ran the program it would tell you which string was incorrect - which made it a hell of a lot easier to correct! I remember creating a picture of Madonna from a poster on my wall that I thought was really great! Ah, the 1980's :)
