Hi Specchums!
Looks like the next Speccy Next kickstarter will be delivering late
summer/autumn. I am of course excited to get back into tinkering with some real
hardware and programming some NextBASIC in the nude, just as Sir Clive intended
for us to use our Spectrums in the privacy of our own bedrooms.
Anyone else part of the SpecNext hype train, or should I be prepared to be
chased out of the group with pitchforks, torches and dog poo on the end of
shovels?

I'm going to put it, or what I'm going to do with it.

Sounds pretty much like me! I'll definitely use it to run some games

with massive overclocks, check out the BBS scene and play with some of
the Next specific software. Definitely can't wait to unbox it, though!

Yes I am on the Next hype train. It has been a long time coming but it will be worth the wait.
Cheers

going to put it or what I'm going to do with it, but I'm enjoying
reading the manual!

old games on it - and I might use it to develop a CSSCGC entry this year
too.

It is. To be honest I also hadn't realised how many improvements were in

Next BASIC... I obviously knew the graphics and sound stuff had been
ramped up, but I didn't know about all the general language niceties.
