"MUCH MUCH better SPECTRUM"? The same Spectrum which had 8-colour graphics at 240*120 or something instead of 16-colour graphics at 320*200? The same Spectrum which had "beep, beep" sounds instead of 3-channel 4-waveform sound? The same Spectrum which had usually 16k memory (48k if you were really lucky) instead of 64k as standard? What is so "MUCH MUCH better" about it? For some reason, the British are wacko over their Spectrums. I always thought there was something odd about the British. -- /-- Joona Palaste (palaste@cc.helsinki.fi) ---------------------------\ | Kingpriest of "The Flying Lemon Tree" G++ FR FW+ M- #108 D+ ADA N+++| | http://www.helsinki.fi/~palaste W++ B OP+ | \----------------------------------------- Finland rules! ------------/ "Hasta la Vista, Abie!" - Bart Simpson
