Synopsis

BACK TO THE SPECTRUM! <br><br>More than twenty years on from its original release, the best-selling Sinclair ZX Spectrum is now one of the most emulated computers in the world. Far from dead, a thriving community of enthusiasts has kept the spirit of this little machine alive through an enormous range of emulators for just about every modern computer platform there is. For the PC in particular, the complexity of these emulators is simply amazing. <br><br>With the rise in interest in retro-gaming, the Spectrum community is starting to grow again as more and more one-time Spectrum owners come back to their computing roots to rediscover the 8 colours and 48K that somehow captured their imagination back in the 1980s. If you are one of these people then this book is for you. <br><br>Focusing primarily on the two most popular Windows emulators, "Spectaculator" and "SPIN", The ZX Spectrum on your PC explains all the main features of these programs. Illustrated walkthroughs teach you everything from how individual cassettes are emulated to how to print from your virtual Spectrum. In no time at all you'll find yourself enjoying all the old games and activities of your youth... on your PC! <Br> <br>C. Woodcock is the editor of ZXF magazine. He has also written several articles on the ZX Spectrum for Micro Mart magazine.
