For anyone who's curious, I'm loading the.TZX from this Nextduino (which was a Xmas present). Worked first try... I mean... Still took like 10 mins, so felt authentically tape (I think it was supplied from here https://www.youmakerobots.com/sinclair/77-nextduino.html )

Finally dusted my #ZX81 off again to run last year's epic 81Zombies Basic game that I wrote. It is absolutely as painfully slow as I imagined.... BUT.....it does run on real hardware from 1981 which has made me a happy Donkey #RetroComputing
