What Is It ?

This list is an attempt to catalogue all of the hardware add-ons that were available for the Sinclair ZX Spectrum. The list began life just before May 1997, with the first list being 'published' at the same time as my web page appeared. Hardware for all models of the Spectrum can be included with only joysticks being disregarded.
This is an on-going venture that you are encouraged to participate in, and all help is greatly appreciated.
Many Spectrum fans will be familiar with many of the entries, such as the DK'tronics keyboard, Interface 1 and Kempston joystick interface. This list will also inform you of the lesser known items such as the Heart Rate Monitor, Adam Adaptor and the recently added Logotron Sprite Board.
I hope you find this list in some way useful, if only to reminisce about
the days when 48k was all you needed !

Why No Joysticks ?

There are a few joysticks mentioned, but only those that are different from the average 'stick & two button' jobs. Sticks like the Trickstick or JE Lazor deserve a mention becaue of the new approach they took. Standard joysticks must number in the hundreds, with so many variations, it would be very hard if not impossible to catalogue. If anyone wants to have a go, then please do.
