For the PC in particular, the complexity of these emulators is simply amazing. Focusing primarily on the two most user-friendly Windows emulators, Spectaculator and ZX SPIN, The ZX Spectrum on Your PC explains all the main features of these applications. Illustrated walk-throughs will teach you everything from how cassettes are emulated to how to print from your virtual Spectrum. In no time at all, you'll find yourself enjoying all the old games and activities of your youth... on your PC! New revised Second Edition includes emulating the Spectrum on your mobile device.

Book Description
Do you miss the sound of the video arcade? Do you yearn for a time when the fashions of the 1980s return? Do you wish there was a magazine that was all about nostalgia? If so, Popular Retro is exactly what you’ve been looking for; it’s a quarterly periodical designed for people who miss the classic TV shows, pine for the computer games of their youth, and marvel at the curios of days gone by - from flares and drainpipes to BMX bikes. Each issue covers everything from music and films to gaming, popular culture, fashion and much more, with in-depth articles serving up a memorable slice of the things that you still love… even if you’d forgotten about them until now! In this first issue, we review forty years of Sir Clive Sinclair’s ground-breaking ZX81 computer, check out the best Ghostbusters toys (from the 1980s, obviously) and look back at everyone’s favourite helicopter-based TV show, Airwolf. You’ll also find a monster retrospective feature deep-diving into the Philips CD-i console and its games, reviews of some classic horror films (on VHS) and even has a pull-out poster for your bedroom wall in the greatest traditions of the magazines from your childhood. At Popular Retro, old is ALWAYS still fashionable.

The Real Deal
Author: Richard DesmondPublisher: Random House
ISBN: 1473518547
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 354
Book Description
From the age of five, when he helped his deaf father negotiate advertising contracts, Richard Desmond has always had an eye for business. In The Real Deal he offers a no-holds-barred account of an extraordinary career that has taken him from cloakroom attendant at a north London club to billionaire media owner. En route he tells of his early life as a rock and roll drummer, his first steps in the world of magazine publishing as a purveyor of leisure and top-shelf titles, and finally, after decades of paying his dues building smaller brands, his arrival in the big league with the launch of OK! magazine and the acquisition of Express Newspapers, his purchase and sale of Channel 5, and his £80 million investment in the Health Lottery, combining business innovation with help for good causes. Along the way, he imparts many of the secrets of his astounding success, as well as giving his forthright opinion (and he always has one) on such diverse subjects as politicians, religion, and the similarities between being a rock and roll drummer and running a business – as well as his views on a cast of characters ranging from Alan Sugar to Victoria Beckham and from Simon Cowell to Jennifer Aniston. Often controversial, frequently revelatory, always entertaining, The Real Deal is the brilliantly frank account of a life spent at the sharp end.
