General

Download Cover Tape Cover tape: On The Run (Design Design, unreviewed), 2112AD (Design Design, 9, Mar'86), Turbo the Tortoise demo (Hi-Tec), Non Compos Mentis II (Nigel Grange, YS), Exiled (Andrew Hall, YS), SAM Screen Compressor (David Gommeren, YS), and POKEs program.
    To celebrate the Speccy's 10th birthday, the ZX92 party was held. Unfortunately only 25 people turned up...
    Includes Hutch's guide to YS lingo.
    SAM Computers Ltd repackages the 256k tape version of the SAM as the "Game Star". Was a very controversial decision - current users crticised SAMCo for helping perpetuate the "Super Spectrum" image.
    SAMCo also announces that it intends to produce any hardware for any computer. Touch of desperation perhaps?
    SAMCo releases the Kaleidoscope, a graphics upgrade that allows 32,768 colours instead of the usual 128, but gets an average review.
    Spectrum hardware round-up.
