This reminds me of the difference between Kirk and Picard. :(

The ZX Spectrum reboot scandal will drag on for at least another month as Retro Computers Ltd’s embattled directors have again delayed a showdown that could lead to their dismissal. :/

Aye, following this quite closely now in the Facebook group.
What is interesting is that information has come out re. the Sinclair licence from Sky and the fact that Sinclair Research Labs (SRL) now seem to have someone representing Sir Clive rather than the embattled directors having his proxy vote.
Some interesting leaks as well over the last week, but hard to tell what's noise and what's true...

A very interesting story Si, with each startup backer paying roughly £100, and ending up with a game console eventually, well if they are lucky. All these startup things are very iffy.
Anyway, looking at it, it seems rather flimsy, but there again, all Sinclair products were a bit like that LOL, I remember being the proud owner of a Sinclair black watch, and when you pressed the red LED display button to read the time, the batteries got the energy sucked right out of them, as it glowed in the dark :D
Just do not understand why they just did not go for a free specky emulator off the internet, and they have all the games on there free?

From my perspective, I wanted something for the commute to work otherwise I wouldn't have bothered...
