Where we are today

As of August 2015, all has been going well with the Vega project. Many computer games enthusiasts and Spectrum fans of all ages are very excited to be awaiting their Vega, the first 1,000 of which are being dispatched as this book is being published. We hope that the supporters of our project will really enjoy their Vegas, and we believe that they will, if the comments on our Indiegogo pages are anything to go by...

‘I cannot wait to show my children what games I used to play as a kid.’

‘We cannot wait to have one in the office for us all to play.’

‘Clive Sinclair for president!’

So that is my tale – at least the part of it related to the Vega. All I have left to do here is to say ‘thank you’ once again to my colleagues at Retro Computers, to all the journalists in the media who have filled up their column inches with our product, and most importantly to you, the fans who have supported us whatever your contribution. We couldn’t have done it without you. My final hope is that you enjoy the Vega just as much as I have enjoyed bringing it to you.

2 In those days the word hacker was used to describe someone who was a whizz at programming, and not necessarily today’s meaning of someone who seeks and exploits weaknesses in a computer system
