The Sinclair ZX80 is the new kid in town; a short-lived position in this rapidly changing field. In the past few years, several dozen personal computers have made an appearance. Some are thriving, others have fallen into the obscurity of bargain sales. We believe that the Sinclair is going to be one of the winners; otherwise, there would be no sense in starting this magazine. So, what are our plans? We aim to cover many levels, with articles that will help beginners, as well as features for pros.
