HELL YES.

I think you were generous with your figure.

I would put the interest level in Speccy at 0.25% (+/- 0.5%)

L'Awesome calendar, of course.

YOU LAZY BASTARDS! Listen to some ZX Spectrum tunes and put this calendar on your desk!

I was too shaky after vomiting to hit the print button on my screen.


I kid, I kid, but seriously.  I know some folks love the Spectrum and even its beeper tunes.  But to me, besides some interesting Follin prog-rock tunes, the rest of the Speccy's music library sounds like a hyperactive geiger counter.

You fight about it even in print????!?

Me: "route."

Joe: .... "I don't like the way he's pronouncing that."

Well the calendar is clearly ZED X Spectrum and that is unacceptable. This is why the download link doesn't work. It needs to be changed to ZEE X Spectrum.

I'm interested enough to at least look at it, but linky no worky.  :|

You've been listening to the wrong tunes, clearly.

Try: Thundercats, Cybernoid 1 & 2, Stormlord, Starglider, Bionic Commando and stuff. 128k versions.
This kind of thing


I fixed the link now.

I thought that, too. But then I heard some stuff (courtesy sunteam_paul) that made me a believer.

Of course, I don't disagree with you: overall, the majority of Speccy games are bleeps and bloops in the sound department.

Absolutely. Especially his Master System games.
