My ZX Spectrum 48K came with a great presentation on casette tape (which ran on the computer) that explained CPU, ROM, RAM, ALU, Basic etc. I see nothing similar to that today.<p>On the other side was a bunch of sample basic programs you could study and learn from.<p>Today, a lot of people who pass themselves as programmers are only capable of pushing pretty buttons ready-made for them but not much more.<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.worldofspectrum.org&#x2F;infoseekid.cgi?id=0009230" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.worldofspectrum.org&#x2F;infoseekid.cgi?id=0009230</a>
