# Sinclair Announces QL; Plans US Mkt Re-Entry

Sinclair Research, Ltd announced in London a new machine—the Sinclair QL—using the 68008 processor running at 7.5 MHz. Late February should see initial shipments in the UK, with production building to 20,000/mo by summer. Introductory price in the UK is $599, but the US price will likely be $499 when the machine arrives here, perhaps by fall of 84.
