Emulating the Sinclair ZX Spectrum on Windows Mobile

"This roundup is somewhat different from the previous one discussing Commodore 64 emulators . The sole reason for this is very simple: of the five Pocket PC-capable Spectrum emulators, there is only one that should be preferred unless you need Portrait mode or an on-screen keyboard with all the original key labels (BASIC commands etc - note that Symbol Shift'ed characters are also shown by UnrealSpeccyPPC). With the C64 emulators, there were two strong Pocket PC contenders (PocketCommodore64 and PocketHobbit, but I've also explained how the worst C64 emulator, ComeBack64ce, should be used) and, of course, the Smartphone-based PocketHobbitSP2003. In the case of the Spectrum, fortunately, there is only one really recommended emulator, which greatly simplifies the discussion."

At the risk of starting a brawl over which home computer platform was better in the 80's; I wanted to share the latest post by Menneisyys with everyone. This time it's all about the Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Which I have never heard of before - like I said before, I had a Vic-20 and that was pretty much it. Menneisyys lives up to his last couple posts - there's plenty of detail in this one too. Check it out!
