For me it is reflecting the deep black of the Space.... with a small stripe, Right down, as the World ...(wherelse do you have a Spectrum!!) Kind regards, Daniel Mandic

Now, I may only be a boring married old codger, but from what I dimly recall, but if the machine induces girls to touch the person *holding* the machine, surely that is the superior result? So, unless those photos were staged (which, it must be conceded, seems implausible), then the Spectrum is preferable for carrying around in public, being an ideal babe magnet, while the C64 is preferable plugged in at home, for use as a computer.

What happens if one owns both a ZX Spectrum and a Commodore 64? You bring the Speccy with you to pick up girls, and when you arrive in your home, they will spot the Commode and get turned off... ;-) -- Anders Carlsson |
