I even managed to learn Assembly on it for what good it did me sinclair changed to a 16 bit cpu and I could not use what I had learned since Assembly is cpu specific. Man that seems a long time ago :character-oldtimer:

Many happy hours spent with Zilog Z80 Machine Code;
A wonderful assembly language, so easy to understand.
I still have my very thick! Z80 instruction manual for reference even now when programming my "Speccy" in BASIC and Machine Code language, using both my Hardware Spectrums and also my Software one...."Spectaculator"...>>> http://www.spectaculator.com/

I still have mountains of various 8-bit computers and all their hardware, and crates of various software on cassette tapes and floppy disks!...AND Microdrives!
All in full working order, and constantly reminding me of happy times spent with all my mates, programming our 48K Speccies, Commodore C64's, Amstrad CPC 464's, etc, in our bedrooms in the 1980's, and showing off our Demo's!
Piles of 8-bit programming manuals.
Really happy times!

A lost art nowadays, with complex 32-bit and 64-bit processors!

Zilog Z80..the King is dead...Long live the King!...>>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zilog_Z80

I hope you did not get what used to be called the trash 80 from radio shack. Now there was a true piece of junk if I ever saw one. I no longer have any of that hardware. Just the other day I finally got rid of my old floppy discs as my new system will not support any IDE hardware. Though I think I still have a old zip drive somewhere collecting dust it used a scuzzy drive.

No, not the TRS 80 from Radio Shack, Gary!... :doh: ....

Here, in England, our hearts were/are set on fire with our wonderful Sinclair ZX Spectrum in its various forms, powered by the 3.5 MHz Z80 Central Processor...>>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZX_Spectrum
I believe the TRS 80 was a poor copy of the ZX Spectrum in the USA...>>> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TRS-80

It was the early 8-bit Sinclair Spectrum, Commodore 64, BBC B, Amstrad 464's, etc, computers here in England, in the early 1980's, which started us all on the path to the Personal Computers of today....
...and where I have been stuck ever since!... :shock: ...!
