Extractions: Siano's Pizzeria at 505 Fore Street, (formerly home of Una wine bar and a former home of Portland Pie before that), will be the company's third location. I've never been inside this building but it looks like they are really sprucing up the inside and it has always looked nice from the outside. I am most looking forward to their breakfast options, which a lot of pizzerias seem to overlook. Beyond breakfast pizzas (which are heavenly when done right) they will offer all the regular eggs and pancakes type of stuff. The rest of the menu looks impressive as well. Pat's Pizza , with many locations around Maine, is finally coming to Portland. They will be at 30 Market Street, which I think is where Market Street Eats used to be (they moved next door). They will occupy three floors, with apparently separate levels for take out, the bar, and family dining. The menu on their website says 'to be decided,' but it's safe to say they will have pizza and sandwiches like all the other locations. They have good pizza pies and I could see them becoming a pizza fan favorite in the area, especially with families.
Extractions: everything on the Sinclair QL everything on the ATARI JAGUAR Die Computer von Sir Clive Sinclair - vom ZX80 bis zum Z88... Sir Clive posiert mit seinen Babies (Fotomontage, v.l.n.r.: Calculator, QL, ZX80, Flat-TV, ZX81, ZX Microdrive, ZX Spectrum mit Interface 1). Im Februar 1980 lancierte Clive Sinclair den ZX80 als ersten Computer für unter 100£ (£99.95, rsp. für £79.95 als Bausatz um genau zu sein)! Dies war eine absolute Pionierleistung und ist im Nachhinein betrachtet mit Sicherheit ein Denkmal wert. Mit BASIC in einem 4KB ROM und 1KB RAM war schon allerhand möglich. Nachdem der ZX80 noch von Clives Firma "Science of Cambridge" herausgegeben wurde, wurde diese Firma im März 1981 liquidiert und "Sinclair Research Ltd" gegründet. Sinclair Research war es dann, welche im März 1981 den ZX81 für £79.95 (£49.95 für den Bausatz) lancierte. Der ZX81 hatte gegenüber dem ZX80 vor allem ein grösseres ROM (8KB statt 4KB) mit einem verbesserten und erweiterten BASIC. Zudem bestand der Computer dank eines ULA-Bausteines (vergleichbar mit heutigen PC-Chipsätzen) lediglich aus 4 IC's. Der ZX81 war, wie alle vorherigen Sinclair-Produkte, nur per Versandhandel von Sinclair selbst erhältlich. Dies änderte sich als die Buchhandlungs-Kette W.H. Smith mit der Einzelhandelsvermarktung (Retail) beauftragt wurde. Damit war der Durchbruch für Sinclair Computer endgültig geschafft, Sinclair Computer traten den weltweiten Siegeszug an und waren quasi überall erhältlich.

Uncle Sinclair Brief page on Sir Clive focusing on his calculators, though he also invented the digital watch, and was father of the British home computer revolution. http://www.xnumber.com/xnumber/sinclair_notes.htm
Extractions: Uncle Clive....... to call him an inventor is perhaps a little inaccurate. Innovator is a closer description. As an example look at the fact that his success floundered particularly in the inventing of the pocket TV . Yet it was at its height after the introduction of the innovative Spectrum personal computers. These followed the introduction of other expensive home computers by larger companies.

Extractions: [Home] This is a collection of various things related to the Sinclair Spectrum . If you don't alreayd know what one is, you probably won't be too interested in what's here, but you never know... There isn't actually too much on this page; if you're looking for general information on the Spectrum, read the comp.sys.sinclair FAQ (mirrored on this site). There are a few specialised things here, though: There were previously two other mini-projects for WoS hosted here, the In-Game Screens and Loading Screens projects, but they are now completed.

The PC 200 Phil South discovers that the new Sinclair is an IBM PC compatible rather than a Spectrum. Your Sinclair http://www.ysrnry.co.uk/articles/pc200review.htm
Extractions: The PC 200 The new Sinclair may not be a Spectrum, but it's an IBM PC Compatible! Hoo boy, we're going to have to get Technical Phil South to have a look at this... Phil South No, I couldn't believe it either, but after thinking about it for a while, I've come to the conclusion that this new machine is a good thing. It's good for the Sinclair brand, taking it into the nineties with a wry grin on its monitor. It's good for the user, presenting him or her wide a range of software unequalled by any other type of machine. And it's certainly good for Amstrad (who bought the Sinclair name in 1985 [actually 1986 - NickH] ), as it could make it the biggest manufacturer and seller of PCs in the world, and earn it a cow-choking wad of cash to boot. Yep, Alan Sugar is going to be positively surfing in money this time, if he isn't already. So why a PC? At the risk of sounding like Barry Norman, why not? The world and his mum are buying PCs at the moment, so why shouldn't the Sinclair brand name be up there on the shelves among them? The PC compatible computer is an old concept, but it's a good one, and it has one big advantage - and any computer which has this goes on for years and years and years. And what's this advantage? Slots! No, I'm not being rude, I'm referring to the expansion slots inside the computer which take expansion cards (printed circuit boards which customise your computer to do any job you like - from being a satellite tracking station, to a Desk Top Publishing workstation or an arcade machine with advanced graphics). Okay that's the theory now for the practice!!

Best search term: sinclair (pc200,pc 200) Availability: Rare Typical value: Amstrad's Sinclair was a radical departure from anything previously produced under the Sinclair label. In effect, it was Amstrad's attempt to tap the market at which the QL had been targeted - the serious user or small businessman on a tight budget. The machine was a severely cut-down PC with an Intel 8086 processor, CGA video card, 512K of memory and no hard disk. The machine came with MS-DOS 3.3 and the GEM desktop system from Digital Research. Its memory could be expanded to 640Kb and an Intel 8087 maths co-processor could be added. Although two expansion slots were provided, the design of the case meant that they could not be housed within the machine - the top cover had to be permanently removed. This severely limited its expandability.
