Re: Spectrumpedia second edition - it's here!
Thank you so much desUBIKado :D I hope you will appreciate the work in its entirety as well, i.e. when the second volume will be translated - although if you are a native Spanish speaker, I believe you can understand at least some Italian. Unfortunately my grasp of that language is not comparable to...

Meanwhile, I integrated the bibliography for English Vol...

A doctorate thesis about the Spectrum
Attribute Clash: An Archaeology Of The ZX Spectrum, by Alexander Cline, 2019, is a thesis in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Anglia Ruskin University for the degree of Doctorate in Philosophy. And a very interesting read as well. (I am even cited in it several times :D ) https://arro.angl...

Re: Is it possible to make a .TRD file read/write?
Maybe you should set the emulated disk as non-protected. For instance, in Spectaculator you must select View > Disk drives and then click on the padlock icon to make it "open".
Which emulator are you using?

Re: Convert TRD to TAP?
Short answer: save yourself many headaches and change emulator Many TRD files around employ custom loaders which are not going to be rendered to TAP easily, if at all.

Re: Tenkolek Programmable Joystick Interface
was that price in lire? Seems a Tad expensive in pounds A British pound was exchanged for about ITL 2,500 back then, so ITL 49,000 would roughly be equal to £19.60.
