Being a giant nerd has never been easier. Look at all this nerd shit everywhere! I love it! Anyways, here’s a very, very nerdy thing on Kickstarter for us nerds of a certain vintage and those who have an affinity for the early days of home computers.

ZX Spectrum Next Issue 3 is now on Kickstarter:

The Sinclair ZX Spectrum Next: the evolution of the Speccy computer, now expanded into the world of the Sinclair QL, C64 and... More!

IS BASIC from the #Enterprise128 is the foremost advanced #BASIC dialects for #8Bit #HomeComputers. But it is very(!) slow. The "Creative Computing Benchmark" took nearly 5 minutes to run (comparable to the #SinclairZXSpectrum and the #TRS80 Model 100) but produced excellent results: "accuracy" is quite good (comparable with #BBCMicro) and "random" is the best of all computers measured in the contest from 1984:

I visited this fascinating Museum of Games and Computers in Wroclaw yesterday. Computer games are not my thing; I build/fix/code, however I found the displays excellent and a trip down memory lane. I even played Pac-Man on a C64! Now if they had a working Sinclair ZX80 and I could play mutant camels off cassette, I would have been even more impressed. They even had removable disks for mini/mainframe computers!
