For several months the weekly leading UK Computer magazine 'Micro Mart' are running a compo for the best 'home computer' in England. It started out with Computers like Amstrad CPC, Dragon, Atari XL, C-64, PC, ZX Spectrum, Mac, BBC, ST, Amiga and some others. Whilst the Atari XL didn't last long in this competition, the C-64 lost out to the Amstrad CPC, which was kinda weird.
I also complained to the magazine why the Apple didn't feature, as everyone knows that the Apple really started the 8-bit Computer revolution. Well, I already knew that the Apple didn't really have an impact in UK, nor in Europe, but it did give me the 'Letter of the Week' in the magazine.

This week is the final round, and it's Amiga 500 vs ZX Spectrum. Who'll win? Let's hope it's not Mr. Rubber keyboard.

Our computer was made in 1982 - and games are still being released for it!
