Even as a Commodore person who's never really owned a Sinclair computer, it can't be underestimated what an impact Sir Clive had on early home computing.

He truly showed that affordable computing is possible and in my mind also inspired the large home computer "cottage industry" in the UK.

Kudos and may you long be remembered.

I remember how I aspired to get a ZX81 and then my dad brought the Vic20 home (color! 5+8kb!) so I became a Commodore fanboy but hey, Sir Clive is my hero too.
