i dunno how 'authentic' it is -- there was a thing would let the speccy play MODs, but when you have basically an amiga in a box, is it a speccy any more

many screen modes, from "fat" MODE 2 (all colours, wide pixels, 16? 20? chars/line, and eats memory) up to 80 chars/line with no colours, good for text. sound came directly out of the keyboard and was FRICKIN' LOUD. so edu games asked "S=sound, Q=quiet".

franz: had 5.25" floppy drive (not very reliable), you could also get software on ROM chip for instant access, i had a wordprocessor chip, & one for synthesised speech, & one for printing bitmaps (of course most 8-bits could only send text printouts).
