The '''ZX Spectrum''' (the "Z" is pronounced "Zed" in its original [[British English]] branding) is an 8-bit personal home computer released in the United Kingdom in 1982 by Sinclair Research Ltd. Referred to during development as the ''ZX81 Colour'' and ''ZX82'', the machine was launched as the ''ZX Spectrum'' by Sinclair to highlight the machine's colour display, compared with the black-and-white of its predecessor, the [[ZX80/81|Sinclair ZX81]]. The Spectrum was released in eight different models, ranging from the entry level model with 16KB RAM released in 1982 to the ZX Spectrum +3 with 128 KB RAM and built in floppy disk drive in 1987; together they sold in excess of 5 million units worldwide.
