Please note that this FAQ covers only the Spectrum; if you're after information on other Sinclair machines, you might like to try one of:

• The QL FAQ
• The QL Faq and Resources Pointer
• The SAM Coupé FAQ (although this hasn't been updated for a long time)
• The ZX81 FAQ

This list is now split into three sections:

• The Essential Sites - if you're a newcomer to the Spectrum scene, these are the places to start. If you're not, these may well still be the sites you visit the most.
• Those sites which have the most useful information on them. These have been split by the type of information they contain:
  • BBS: Bulletin Boards.
  • Conversions: Spectrum games converted and updated for newer machines.
  • FTP Sites
  • Games Etc: Games and other programs for your Spectrum.
  • Games Help: Hints, tips, cheats and pokes for games.
  • IRC: Internet Relay Chat servers.
  • Magazines: Publications about the Spectrum, both the classics and more modern ones.
  • Miscellaneous: Things that don't fit elsewhere.
  • News: Usenet newsgroups and mailing lists related to the Spectrum.
  • Real Machines: Real Spectrums and parts to fix your old ones.
  • Reference Material: Manuals, technical information and the like.
  • Utilities: Spectrum-related programs which run on machines other than your Speccy.
  • User Groups: Collections of people who want to talk about Spectrums.
• All the Other Spectrum Sites that I know about. There's nothing wrong with these sites, but they may be a bit out of date, or just don't have much unique content on them.

Note that as of the 14 August 2001 update to this FAQ, sites which contain programs which copyright holder has requested not be distributed will no longer be listed.
