During the life of the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, their were many
magazines. In the early days Sinclair Projects was a favourite.
With it's listings of programs to type in. During the Golden
Years most of these magazines were dedicated to games. Unfortunately
these magazines started to give away free games in the late
80`s which was a large contributing factor in the fall of
the Sinclair Spectrum as one of the most popular computers
available. Once the onset of the 16-bit market took hold of
the home computer market, the magazines slowly disappeared
as the popularity for the Spectrum disappeared. Some of the
magazines fought on and in a last ditched effort to support
Spectrum users, they even merged. Nothing was to save the
Spectrum or it`s magazines and eventually they all went.
These magazines are kept alive by enthusiasts and Spectrum
lovers all over the world with their websites. Some of these
you will find links too on this page.
