Sinclair QL is 40! The Party 2024, Cheers, Chats, Presentations, Exhibition, Workshops -

On January 12th 1984 Sir Clive Sinclair presented the Sinclair QL Professional Computer in a typical Sinclair-extravaganza style launch event at the Intercontinental Hotel, Hyde Park Corner, London. This was exactly 12 days earlier than Steve Jobs presented the Apple Macintosh. While the Mac did it in the long run and is a mainstream product in the present and future, the QL went into dust. Before leaving the field, the QL inspired many experts and influenced today's products in one way or another. Most prominent example is Linux, where its creator Linus Torvalds was a QL hacker back in the 80s. The rest is history!

Thank you all for keeping the Sinclair QL alive in 2024. Happy 40th anniversary Sinclair QL.
PS: Music was too loud, overpowering, I couldn't really hear what you were saying during the video.

Loved the video but the music overlay was just a bit too loud (couldn't hear the commentary). Pleased you uploaded.

Superbasic is still the benchmark today
