I really wanted to, but I just could not. Not only from a price point of view, but I am spreading myself too thin across all my hobbies. Commodore is my focus, although I will stand along the side lines and admire the Spectrum Next.

oh I did, in issue 2. Looking forward to it, though I kind of have a stack of these to go through at this point. :)

I really wanted one, but I gave myself a reality check. I know it would gather dust more than be used.

Where does one get these reality checks? Asking for a friend. :lol:

Speccies are small, I like that. I have one of these and love it.

I got a Sam Coupe for Christmas one year, honestly I have no desire for another barely supported super-spectrum. I accept that there's a huge amount of effort gone into the Next. Sam Coupe too. I just wouldn't use it enough to justify the price tag. I have tons of Spectrums I don't use either.

We are all quite hopeless. We just have to direct our obsessions in as positive direction as possible.
