When I started this page I wondered if I was a bit crazy to do this. But I still love my humble old Speccy. I guess it's a bit like your first love except for that I still use my Spectrum. Ahem, anyway I don't think I am alone (and I believe the participants in comp.sys.sinclair agrees with me) and there are several people still keeping the old rubber keys alive.

Yes, the Spectrum if in fact very much alive and kicking. Not only people keep it for nostalgic reasons but new software and hardware is being produced.
