    At The Last Minute

    Welcome to a last-minute issue of the FidoGazette. Unfortunately
    today was busier than I expected (or wanted) but here's a small issue
    of the FG for you. The Fidonet Software List has been updated as has
    the BBS list.

    Hoping for more content next week. I hope you enjoy this issue
    though!

    NTVDMx64 Issues
    Sean Dennis (1:18/200)

    Mike Ehlert (author of NetFoss/NetSerial) posted in the BBSing 2.0
    Facebook group about issues with NTVDMx64:

    "For those of you using NTVDMx64 to run a DOS BBS under Windows x64
    and NetFoss64, be aware that there is a bug in NTVDMx64 builds after
    06/06/2021 which will cause the batch file to crash as soon as
    NetFoss64 is loaded. This includes the version released on Columbia
    University's site in January 2022. You can get the working
    06/06/2021 build by using the Wayback Machine hosted by Archive.org
    and entering the Columbia U. URL there and then selecting a point in
    time before January 1 2022 to download from. I have submitted a big
    report to Leechers GitHub page including a test bed to help him to
    duplicate the issue."

    ZX Spectrum, the 8-bit home computer that turned Europe onto PCs,
    is 40

    Hey hey 16k, what does that get you today?

    Richard Speed Fri 22 Apr 2022 // 12:13 UTC

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------

    Prepare yourself for a weekend of wobbly power connectors and Daley
    Thompson digit-mashing: tomorrow marks the 40th anniversary of the
    Sinclair ZX Spectrum.

    The ZX Spectrum, released on April 23, 1982, was a follow-up to
    Sinclair's ZX81. Referred to as the ZX82 or ZX81 Colour during
    development, the final product arrived with either 16KB or 48KB of RAM
    (depending on pocket depth) and a case designed by Rick Dickinson, who
    had previously worked on the ZX81 wedge. Dickinson was also
    responsible for the ZX Spectrum's infamous rubber keyboard.

    I personally have a lot of respect for the Sinclair team's
    single-minded focus on engineering to a target cost - Eben Upton

    The BASIC interpreter was stored in ROM and was written by Steve
    Vickers on contract from Nine Tiles. A prototype ZX Spectrum, formerly
    in the possession of Nine Tiles, was donated to the Centre for
    Computing History in 2019. The prototype lacks the Dickinson case and
    features full-travel keys, but the guts would go on to form the ZX
    Spectrum found occupying many a family television of the 1980s.

    Text took the form of a 32 x 24 column display and graphics had 256 x
    192 pixels to play with. Color was problematic; to conserve memory a
    separate 32 x 24 overlay of 8 x 8 pixels were used, with each block
    FGAZ 18-10 Page 3 25 Apr 2022


    having a foreground and background color. While static color images
    could work relatively well, the approach resulted in the infamous
    attribute clash. Rival machines, such as the Commodore 64, did not
    suffer from the same problem although used a lower multicolor
    resolution made for blockier graphics.

    Ah, the playground discussions that ensued over sprites, peeks, and
    pokes. Those were the days.

    The ZX Spectrum, replete with rubber keyboard, debuted at 125 pounds
    for the 16KB version and 175 pounds for the 48KB incarnation. A 32KB
    RAM pack could be plugged into the rear expansion slot of the former,
    and this writer well remembers the joy of an unexpected reset caused
    by a wobbly bit of hardware.

    Over five million of the Z80A-based devices were sold, and its impact
    cannot be understated. While over 1.5 million BBC Micros (made by
    Acorn) may have also been sold during its lifetime, it was the ZX
    Spectrum that found its way into far more homes across Europe, and its
    impact continues to resonate in the IT world of today.

    Raspberry Pi supremo Eben Upton was more on the Acorn side of things,
    but recalled the effect of the plastic slab: "As a much more
    affordable alternative to the Beeb, and with roughly 3x the lifetime
    sales, the Spectrum probably had a greater role in promoting the
    accidental route into engineering careers in the '80s and early '90s."

    "Lots of people here at Pi Towers had their first exposure to
    programming on Sinclair hardware," Upton said, "and I personally have
    a lot of respect for the Sinclair team's single-minded focus on
    engineering to a target cost."

    The original ZX Spectrum enjoyed a relatively short time in the sun,
    and was discontinued in favor of the functionally identical (but
    recased with an updated keyboard) ZX Spectrum+ in 1985. Later versions
    received more RAM and, with the Amstrad takeover, another keyboard
    update, built-in cassette recorder, and disk drive.

    Clones would also crop up from time to time, including the recent (and
    infamous) ZX Spectrum Vega+. A warm bath of nostalgia is also possible
    via a variety of on and offline emulators.

    Sadly, Sir Clive Sinclair and Rick Dickinson are no longer with us.
    However, hardware designer Richard Altwasser and Dr Steve Vickers will
    be on hand at The National Museum of Computing on April 23 for a live
    and virtual Q&A, preceded by the same with Sir Clive's son, Crispin.

    In the meantime, this seems as good a time as ever to indulge in a
    little bit of rose-tinted nostalgia. Music by MJ Hibbett and with
    animation by Rob Manuel. (R)
