My computer history

3. 1982 I progressed to the ZX Spectrum which was £99, because I couldnt afford the BBC computer which was £399 in 1982!!!


I created Spectrum 3000, marketed by DK'tronics and made about £200. (Previously made for the Sinclair ZX81)



I had a lot to do with the ZX spectrum which involved the OPUS discovery disk drive system, which was brilliant!
