#ZX81 scratchings update: with a little time this week, I managed to press buttons and add some more to my MGAc!d inspired... game? Now with added being able to spend cards to move, trashing cards, and querying squares.... This is the slowest progressing basic program ever. Note: video is at like 10x actual speed! 🫏#RetroComputing

A computer or a motorbike, it’s a question to ponder,
Whatever I choose, it will require me to wander,
I could hitch hike down, to the big smoke yonder,
Although in the end, I bought a local Honda.

“16 year old Scott hitch hiked from Swindon to London with £100 in his pocket”

@Chrishallbeck Lived and still live in the future. 🤓

Started in ‘78 with the school Commodore PET, then my Uncles TRS80 and by 1980 my own hand forged “Sir Clive”, steam powered #Sinclair #ZX80 with #Z80 processor @ 3.XX MHz with 4K ROM (later a #ZX81 upgrade) and 1Kb RAM.

My first computer

After viewing the ITCrowd website and seeing their Sinclair ZX81 I had to let out a snigger. My machine is better than theirs. This is my first computer I had to myself (well sort of). Read more about The ZX80.
