Extractions: Personal Computer World, June 1981 Like the ZX80, its predecessor, the ZX81 will be available by mail-order and, by the time you read this, deliveries should be coming through. Clive Sinclair tells me that he plans to up production to 10,000 units per month starting in April and that he'll be producing 10,000 ZX80s to satisfy overseas demand, so, providing that 10,000 or fewer of you order the new machine per month, delivery should be swift. Sinclair has been a bit cheeky in his advertisements. Under a column entitled 'New, improved features', he proceeds to mention three things that were included in the ZX80 when it was launched over a year ago! The main limitations of the ZX80 were the fact that it could not handle floating point numbers or cassette files. Also, when first launched, memory expansion came a bit expensive but this changed when the 16k plug-in RAM became available. The ZX80 certainly represented a great step forward and offered excellent value for money for people wanting to learn about computing. Hardware Although physically smaller than the ZX80, the new machine weighs in at 13oz, about 2oz heavier than its predecessor. The system needs a UHF television, a cassette recorder and a power supply to make it usable.

Extractions: Sinclair C5 PEDAL-POWER BEHIND THE HI-TECH TRIKE The Sinclair C5: Is it reliable? Is it even safe? Chris Bourne on Clive's dream car THE SINCLAIR C5, a 99lb battery-powered, one-seater tricycle with a white plastic body, seems set to create more noise in the motoring world than John De Lorean and the BL Maestro rolled into one. There was much advance speculation about the machine, and Sinclair staff remained tight-lipped to the bitter end. A few spectacular leaks proved more or less accurate, but the extent of the marketing support from such worthies as Woolworth and the Electricity Council was a surprise. The original design was expected to involve radically new battery technology, as a previous problem facing electric car designers had been the construction of a battery powerful enough to drive the car but light enough for the car to carry. The C5 does not provide anything new in that area, but uses a 33lb lead-acid battery, based on existing car batteries. When you consider that the rest of the machine weighs only twice as much, you realise the sacrifice a conventional battery entails. Unable to produce a radically new battery design, the designers chose to create a lightweight vehicle to suit existing technology. With the aid of Lotus, the British sports car specialists, a sleek body was designed. Steering is through handlebars situated beneath the thighs, with brakes similar to cycle brakes. The accelerator is a button on the handlebars, and there is no reverse gear.

In many ways, it was a link between the hobbyist MK14 and the mass market and Spectrum . It was available in two versions - a self-assembly kit and a ready-built computer, thus covering both the hobbyist and high street markets. The ZX80 established the distinctive Sinclair look (unkindly compared to a block of cheese); it was the first implementation of Sinclair's legendary touch-sensitive keyboards; it also had the first implementation of Sinclair BASIC. By modern standards (or even those of the later Sinclair computers), it was a very primitive beast. An scathing Personal Computer World restrospective six years later highlighted the machine's "unusable keyboard and a quirky BASIC" which it claimed had "discouraged millions of people from ever buying another computer" (
Metal Salt Reduction To Form Alloy Nanoparticles - Patent 6676729 Sinclair, Appl. Phys. Lett. 66, 1692 (1995); N. Li and B. M. Lairson, IEEE Trans, Mag., 35, 1077 (1999); molecular beam epitaxy B. M. Lairson, M. R. Visokay, R. Sinclair, B. M http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6676729.html
Extractions: GO TO ADVANCED SEARCH LOGIN: Metal salt reduction to form alloy nanoparticles United States Patent 6676729 A method for making nanoparticles via metal salt reduction comprises, first, mixing metal salts in a solvent. Second, a reducing agent is added to the solvent at a temperature in the range of 100° C. to 350° C. Third, the nanoparticles dispersion is stabilized. Fourth, the nanoparticles are precipitated from the nanoparticle dispersion. Finally, the nanoparticles are re-dispersed into the solvent. The metal salt comprises a combination of FeCl , FeCl , Fe(OOCR) , Fe(RCOCHCOR) , CoCl , Co(OOCR) , Co(RCOCHCOR) , and one of Pt(RCOCHCOR) , PtCl . The reducing agent comprises one of MBR H, MH, M naphthalides, and polyalcohol; wherein R comprises one of H and an alkyl group, wherein M comprises one of Li, Na, and K. Long chain alkyl diols, and alkyl alcohol, can be used as a co-surfactant or a co-reducing agent to facilitate nanoparticle growth and separation.

Extractions: Sinclair Research, 1984 After its remarkable successes with the and Spectrum , it seemed that Sinclair Research could do no wrong. Its next computer, the Sinclair QL (or "Quantum Leap"), was promoted as a revolutionary breakthrough - the It was not to be, however. The early promise of the Sinclair QL was rapidly undone by the disastrous technical and production difficulties which the machine encountered in its first months on the market. As had happened on so many previous occasions, Sinclair's delivery systems and quality control were seriously deficient; frustrated owners waited months for their machines only to find, in many cases, that when they eventually arrived they did not work properly. Even those that did work initially came with an unexpected addition: a "dongle"

Extractions: Sinclair Research, 1981 The , Sinclair's third computer, sparked a popular mania for computing following its launch in 1981. The machine was shipped in two versions: as a traditional self-assembly kit ( right ) and, more popularly, as a ready-assembled machine which only needed to be connected to a television and power supply before it could be used. In modern terms it was one of the first "plug and play" computers. By today's standards the ZX81 is laughably primitive: only 1K of memory, no colour or sound and a notably unresponsive touch-sensitive keyboard. Even by the standards of the time, its technology was basic. The ZX81 owed its success not to its capabilities but to that most elusive quality, being the right product in the right place at the right time. It attracted a great deal of attention by Sinclair's traditional sales route, mail-order - 300,000 ZX81s were sold that way by the end of January 1982 - but its key breakthrough was on the British high street.

Extractions: Science of Cambridge, 1977 Few now recall it, but the Microcomputer Kit 14 (MK 14) was Sinclair's first computer. It was a significant success, with over 50,000 sold, though this proved modest compared to the enormous sales of the later Sinclair machines. Based on the National Semiconductor SC/MP processor, the MK 14's capabilities were minimal by today's standards - modern digital watches are considerably more powerful! Despite the MK 14's severe limitations, it was one of the most important British computers ever produced. Its success in finding a previously untapped market was not lost on either Sinclair or his employees, notably Chris Curry, soon to break away and establish Acorn. Without the MK 14, there probably would never have been a ZX81, Spectrum, BBC Micro or Archimedes, and the British computer scene would have been very different.

Extractions: Sinclair Research / Amstrad, 1982-88 By far the most famous and successful of his many products, the ZX Spectrum earned Clive Sinclair a fortune, a knighthood for "services to British industry" and a lasting place in the national consciousness. Huge numbers of Spectrums were sold around the world, making it by some way the most successful British computer ever made. Sinclair's standing rose so high that in 1983 Margaret Thatcher personally presented a Spectrum to the Japanese Prime Minister as a symbol of British technological prowess (although this turned out to be more of a symbol of Thatcherite hubris). The Spectrum was the longest-lived Sinclair product, eventually appearing in seven distinct versions produced over a six-year period:
Extractions: Home The Sinclair Industry Magazines Spectrum / Your Sinclair The only major British 8-bit magazine to change its name during the 1980s, Your Spectrum / Your Sinclair still retains a special place in the affections of many Sinclair users. The magazine was the last to bow out, in September 1993, when its publishers allowed it the dignified exit denied to its competitors. Based in "Castle Rathbone" (a somewhat run-down office building off Oxford Street in London), it cultivated a self-conscious naffness which could be irritating but could also be, at best, extremely funny. It liked to describe itself as "crap in a funky skillo sort of way", which pretty well sums up its approach. A History of YS Your Spectrum was launched in December 1983 as an antidote to the staid Sinclair User and ZX Computing . The difference in its approach was apparent from the start: lots of colour pages, a screenshot accompanying every game review (hard to believe this was once regarded as an innovation!) and many heavy-duty articles on machine code programming and hardware add-ons.
