Greetings

Hello,

I'm Peter from Surrey in the UK. My first computer was a ZX81 that my late father and I built from a kit. A few years later I moved onto the ZX-Spectrum and apart from occasional playing with other 8-bit platforms I stayed with the Spectrum until I got my Amiga 1200.

I've always had an interest in the Memotech range (we had a ZX81 RAM Pack from them). With emulation making things much easier nowadays (and saving the bank balance), I have been playing with various retro machines over the Covid-19 period. I can program a little amount of Assembler, but I'm sure nothing to the standard that you guys can. I was impressed with the BASIC on the Memotech, and liked the fact that the 256x192 was familiar to me.

I should also declare that I run spectrumcomputing.co.uk which is a fan-site for the ZX.

Hi Peter

Welcome to our slice of Memotech

Be sure to visit Andy’s site where you will find MEMU
ETA: ahh, I see you have already found MEMU

Also there is loads of stuff including manuals and technical documentation on Dave’s site

And of course, don’t forget the host site of this forum, Claus‘s MTX World

Thanks Mark. I will bookmark those links. The emulator seems very good, and runs on the Raspberry Pi!

Hi Peter,

As Mark says, “welcome”!

If you are interested in running MEMU on a Raspberry Pi, check out Bill Brendling’s “bare metal” implementation here
