Just read that Sir Clive passed away. So I turned on my Cambridge Z88
to commemorate one of his last achievements (it is his last computer,
isn't it?).
I never used his most famous creation, the ZX Spectrum (I only briefly
owned one of local clones back in early 1990s but never actually used
it). I also had the A-bike but it was not useful in local environment
(quality of cycle paths was too poor to its 7" wheels - and I was also
too heavy for it - about 80 kg with my backpack).
But I like the Z88 very much. An excellent portable machine with full
size keyboard and quite balanced software (though I use the QuickEdit
rather than the PipeDream for text editing). It is a masterpiece,
I think.
