Awesome video! And it was made the same year I was born (bit of useless info for you) You gotta love these tech relics, I miss my speccy 128k, amstrad and amiga 500! I never had a Commodore 64 as my mate did so we would swap computers because I loved Fiendish Freddys Big Top'o Fun (more usless info for you!) Great stuff as usual Larry.

Wahaha, I just noticed he's hot-swapping a Konami Antarctic Adventure cart from the left machine to the right at the beginning...jeez, I wouldn't try that myself. And Bill Gates talking about a one-chip MSX...in 1984 :) Of course, the "built into a TV set" idea sounds like one of Sony's very old fascinations with a set-top box that does everything (the PS3 is closer to that goal, but we're still not there yet)

Sir Clive should've hammered away at the price difference, I think.

I agree. MSX superior to the Spectrum. Although they had the same processor, video display on the MSX was better and so was the sound.
