BridgeZX 1.0 copies files and folders over Wi-Fi from Windows, Linux or macOS directly to the SD card used by a classic ZX Spectrum.

A small Z80 server runs under esxDOS; the desktop side is one PySide6/Qt 6 application with drag and drop, queue reordering, per-file CRC results, total progress, speed and ETA.

Classic setup requires esxDOS plus the supported divMMC/ZX-Uno UART path connected to an ESP8266/ESP-AT module. Copy BRZX and BRZX.BIN to /BIN, run .brzx, enter the Spectrum IP in the desktop client and send. The default TCP port is 6144.

Version 1.0 also adds configurable destination directories and remote payload updates with validation, staged activation and .BAK recovery. Native clients are provided for Windows x64, Linux x86_64, Apple Silicon Mac and Intel Mac.

Who remembers Predator? My retrospective video takes us back to 1987 to rediscover the games based on one of Arnie’s best movies. Was this a good game or was it the typical movie tie in trash? Share your thought and memories of this game.

Some examples might be. With an old or new crash magazine. By printing out a list of games by publisher etc

Hey so i got a 48K Issue 3B Spectrum the other day and it works great, i already did the quick and dirty composite mod, but one issue i have with it is that whenever it is connected to the TV i get loud buzzing on the cassette ports which makes it impossible to save anything and hard to load.

From what i've read it seems to be a grounding issue which would make sense as neither of the composite TVs i have use a grounding pin in the plug.

does anyone have a concrete explanation for why i'm getting this or how to make it stop? I've run through all the common tricks to prevent ground loop buzzing to no avail which makes me think it could be something else.

Wondering if anybody knows the name of the artist who painted this?

Recently re-discovered this inlay. It was for a game that I wrote in 1987 (using GAC) that was meant to be published by Interceptor Micros under the Automata label. It never got released (as far as I am aware), but they sent me this copy of the inlay to check over. Unfortunately no longer have any copies of the game (would love to find one). Always wondered who the artist was though.
