Linus Torvalds has attributed his eventually inventing and developing the Linux kernel to his Sinclair QL.

Un grand Merci à Linus Torvalds, without whom we'd all be windo$e slaves. Win7 has tools that are the same, useful.

I bought my ZX-81 at a place where calculators were sold. They went out of business long ago, though.
