Chasing the last rays on the one day of sunshine this week. British vapourbrite struggles are real.

Just went to get something out of a box and found the mother lode of retro goodness. Bonus points if you can name the computer that's buried under all the cassettes and discs.

Personal Computer News, Nov. 1983 computer hardware sales chart. Not much love for the Apple IIe here in the UK. Meanwhile, the Spectrum dominates the charts - not sure about the £99 price. I thought it was £125 for the 16K and £175 for the 48K model. Commodore close behind!

Home computer UK game charts from November 1983. The Ultimate games were amongst the cheapest ones - before the arrival of the 'budget' titles. Importantly, Spectrum games were selling really well and making a lot of money for the UK publishers.
