CHAPTER 1

Introduction

The Spectrum is a modern recreation of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum personal computer
series first released in 1982. The Spectrum is instantly reminiscent of the original 16
and 48K ZX Spectrum with a fully functional rubber keyboard. Looks can be deceiving
however, as The Spectrum is packed with features that were only to be found on later
Spectrum models, including additional memory and improved sound, and its HDMI and
USB ports make it plug-and-play with today's technology.
