Hello from denmark

Post by kolbeck »

Hello,

Not as a surprise my first computer was a ZX81 with 16Kb Ram and a lot of wobbles. Today my setup is a ZX81, recapped, ULA heatsinked, 7805 replaced with a Traco and a ZX8-CCB for composite video. It also got the great ZX-Pand+ and a nice TZXDuino - ready for many years of joy in the future.

Besides playing with my ZX81, I'm also part of the team behind the https://github.com/zxdb/ZXDB database that drives websites such as http://spectrumcomputing.co.uk, my own https://zxinfo.dk - as well as my ZXDB Open API api.zxinfo.dk/doc/ an API that is used by different applications by now. My main work on the ZXDB database is to keep the ZX81 information up to date, for which I have used this forum as a source for new releases. My reason for joining this forum is also to get in contact with others who can help investigate information for not so common releases, in order to have the most updated and correct info in the database. I might also ask for help, as there are lots of work still to be done :-)

cheers
Thomas

Tak Martin

FYI I’m also considering adding Lambda/Power/Marathon info into the database- when I find some free time :-)
