In 1984 Sinclair launched the ZX Spectrum+. A fully suitable name, because the 'Plus' was nothing more then a face lifted normal ZX Spectrum, the big bang for Sinclair that was launched two years before.
The Spectrum+ tried to solve the biggest minus of all Sinclair computers so far: the awkward keyboard.

This morning turned into some fun moving computers, or something like that.
We decomissioned an IT suite, meaning we had to strip down these 32 venerable HP DC7700 machines so they can make their long, long overdue visit to the recycling centre.
Then we had to move the 32 computers from the room next door into the one we just cleared.
All good fun.
This is in preparation for some demolition that will be happening that requires some teachers to move classrooms.
In January.
Maybe.

My first computer (1980) with 64K of memory! Using a Motorola 6809 processor it had Multitasking / Multiprocessing - Up to 4 users at once could work on it. Not seen is my Epson MX-80 dot matrix printer $400.
Here is the Powerbook Duo 230, which was the only one of the three that we were able to power on to a working operating system.
The Oric Handbook by Peter Lupton and Frazer Robinson. Published by Century Communications in 1983, this is one of those books that aims to provide an alternative to the official manual.
Some years back I met someone with a pile of IIc's in his shed, which he passed on for me to look after. I still hope to do something in order to display them properly one day. Interestingly, one of them had the LCD display shown here - they're quite unusual, as they were truly awful at the time, so comparatively few were sold.
I'm very fond of the IIc - it see it as one of the three computers which seem to best exemplify Steve Job's particular vision, for good or ill.
