Machforr, i just tested for you, a speccy will save 1KB in 14 seconds i dunno if the ZX81 had the same ROM routines for save/load but it is possible they were similar, some of that ROM was borrowed & enhanced

My friend's dad was from France.. and he brought it with him I think.. but yes, the spectrums were rare in Canada

Not making fun here... just curious

i think that 48 Speccy keyboard is cute (i like the small size) but it is not great for typing indeed. weren't those ZX machines rare in canada? or did you live somewhere else?

how long would it take on a tape deck to load a 1k program?
