| Friday 7th August 2015 | miles (essex/uk) | | I own a reasonably mint +2(grey) same as the one I owned back in 1986 I have all my old games plus many more I got cheaper in the 90''s and will continue to use it I got a lovely scart lead and a refurbed Quickshot 1 joystick plus the joystick converters for both ports(a must) I do have an SJS1 joystick but keeping that intact as they snap easily as most of you will remember. The built in cassette deck worked fine back then and does now, I haven''t had to twiddle the Azymuth screw as yet like I did back in the day but I think that was more down to recording methods rather than any fault of the tape head. I''m prepared to change the tape drive belt if it were to perish and snap there isn''t much to worry about as far as repairs go. These are solid machines considering the fun people made of companies like Amstrad same goes for Sinclair. As long as you use them as intended they last forever :) I couldn''t live without mine it''s like my childhood never left me |

| Saturday 21st July 2012 | Miguel (Porto Portugal) | | I''m not going to say anything but a little detail since everyone said and feels the same about this computer. I had one too. What really intrigued me was this: I had a friend who had the +2 and I had the +2A and there was at least a difference besides the color and that +3 menu that it was the PLAY command with some keystrokes. He had that command in his +2 and I didn''t. I also had this book which I saw selling at ebay and some retro uk gaming site which came with it from where we could copy and try to run those little "programs"(?) and save them on tape. Oh but that play command...! Anyone used to code? (copy code too) Anyone remember that difference or used the command? Thanks in advance and keep on remembering old gold times spectrum gave us all! |

| Saturday 21st April 2012 | Marco G (Portugal) | | I own a +2B and a +3.
I remember the +2A cassette player buttons started breaking after some time. I remember using the screw driver - which was actually used for fine tuning - as a lever to activate the play button.
I had countless ours of gaming with this baby. Counting out the cassette player, they where damn robust and made to last.
I even made a cable to connect the RGB output to a TV scart input after looking at a diagram in some magazine. Guess what ... it worked. The TV transmitter wasn''t the best in hood. Best transmitter was in the Timex TC-2068. But, you just could get near my RGB to scart connection $) |

| Sunday 29th May 2011 | mentalist3d | | That brought back memories, really enjoyed games such as Golden Axe, Bubble Bobble, etc. It was also a good introduction to programming at an early age, I remember spending weeks on end, programming in games from the manual and getting them to work.
The worst part was when loading bigger games, you could spend up to 10 minutes going through the loading, and just before the game would finish loading it would crash and you would have to start from scratch. |

| Tuesday 5th February 2002 | Anders (Stockholm, Sweden) | | Ah, I remember my old 128+2... the only thing I didn't really appreciate was the fact that it didn't have a tape counter. I remember an article in Sinclair User were they actually taught you have to make your own counter... Well it involved som pretty nasty surgery and my hands didn't really feel steady enough ;-) So I used an external cassette deck as a counter. |
