MySpeccy.com — renascence of ZX Spectrum in the Internet
Spectrum that belongs to childhood
Smell of tape cassettes. “Play” button and squeak of speakers. Red and blue stripes on TV screen and sacramental inscription: "Manic miner"... Millions of kids and serious grown up men were exchanging games with each other, writing their first programs in Basic and were enjoying those plain but magnificent sounds. The name of that miracle of the end of the past century is ZX Spectrum.
Renascence of Spectrum in the Internet
So much time was spent on that small box with 40 keys, old TV and cassette recorder! So many joysticks were broken, so much amusement we had! And for many talented IT specialists Spectrum was the thing that became a first step to their profession.
The idea that was sitting in authors’ heads and kept them restless, finally had been brought to life. Your fingers will remember their “keyboard kung fu“ at Saboteur or Target; Renegade. You will be able to show your experience and skills that were developed during long fascinating evenings many years ago. What is more, you will have a chance to challenge with others and crown your name with immortality, because the results of your games are going to be SAVED at MySpeccy.com web-site!
And, of course, the community
The legendary computer gathered around itself a great community of fans who are still creating games, demos, writing music, drawing on that legendary platform. In the modern Internet you just cannot leave it out of account, that is why at MySpeccy.com you will find mechanisms that let to create and support the community. We created many particularized functional and many interesting features and that will help you to find new friends.
We will develop this resource taking your wishes into consideration.
The main goal of our project is to create a place of maximum comfort for everyone who loves Speccy.
So good news everyone! Your old Speccy is born again in the Internet at MySpeccy.com!
