The Boss [43 Kb]
A Sinclair+ advertisement. I think this requires a full translation :
"When I joined the computer gang, I of course wanted a GOOD home micro computer. The kind you can do more with than just play games, and one that won't get out-dated right in the beginning. Those already in the gang told me to get a SUITABLY SIZED, RELIABLE computer. The kind that ya know has many programs, lots of expansions, the newest technology, Finnish guidance, a reliable importer.. and all at a reasonable price. Started searching... and chose the latest from Sinclair, the ZX Spectrum+. It's a gaming companion that won't tire out. But at the same time it's my closest helper. Good looking. Stylish, I would say. Ya move fast with it. It doesn't forget anything (except for my mistakes, which it forgives right away). 48 kB of memory. Modern keyboard. So I'm like the boss now. With the "Spec" I take control of computers, just like that. Who's to say what kinda boss I could be one day. At least I don't hafta fiddle with the beginners, no matter where I'll work. There will be a computer anyway. Did ya know that Sinclairs are the most popular micro computers in Europe?"
A Sinclair spoof with a spelling mistake [24 Kb]
"The manufactures idea of the new Spectrum : creatures of the universe uncomfortably grabbing the new arrival" ..  I think it should've been "eagerly grabbing", which is spelled similarly in Finnish.
