[Prize Draw] Let us know about your favourite bit of tech
My favourite bit of tech is now 43 years old and without it, the world would be a different place. Back in 1980 I was the proud owner of a Sinclair ZX80 computer, considered by many to be the first small home computer and one that kickstarted home computing back then. By modern standards its a joke, no hard drive, no floppy drive, no colour and small programs (1K) were loaded eventually from cassette. There is far more computing power in your average Chip & PIN ATM card or SIM card. This small, archaic computer set me on the path to being a computer engineer and eventually teaching electronics at University. I still have mine safely tucked away and occasionally dig it out for a Memory Lane experience.
Loved my Spectrum, remember playing Bismarck 🚢 for hours on end.
