Computer Market - ZX Spectrum

The most iconic Sinclair computer, the ZX Spectrum, was produced in six major models (and several more minor versions, the differences in the latter primarily relating to versions of the main circuit board). It was hugely successful - many millions were sold around the world - and this popularity has meant that Spectrums are still cheap and easy to obtain.
