Den britiske retrobutikken Funstock har annonsert at Sinclair ZX Spectrum Vega lanseres 24. august. Dette er i praksis en skikkelig ZX Spectrum, men i en kompakt boks som får strømmen sin fra USB-porten på TV-en. Systemet har hele 1000 spill innebygd – alle med lovlig lisens – og støtter flere via SD-kort.
Vega er designet av Chris Smith, som visstnok er en tidligere ZX Spectrum-utvikler, og har fått full støtte av Sir Clive selv. Den mangler tastaturet til originalen, men har et virtuelt tastatur på skjermen. Alle de innebygde spillene fungerer med knappene på dingsen.
Prisen er 100 britiske pund, altså nesten 1300 kroner. Det betyr med andre ord at du burde kunne få en ekte maskin til en billigere penge. Men den kommer ikke med 1000 spill innebygd, og der må du leve med lastetider, dårlige koblinger til TV-apparatet, og så videre.
For de uinnvidde er ZX Spectrum en britisk mikrodatamaskin som ble lansert i 1982. Den var voldsomt populær på øyriket, mye takket være den lave prisen. Det resulterte i et yrende spillmarked, og plattformen fikk en rekke genuine klassikere.

Phew! Det tok sin tid å skrive alt det der!
#458 er jo det eneste viktige :) Om det da faktisk er LORDS og ikke «Loads» of Midnight…
Hehe, deres skriveleif, ikke min! :)
Når det er sagt, tror jeg dette prosjektet har truffet på et par-tre problemer i årenes løp. Artikkelen er fra 2015.
