Issue #371 - Sir Clive Sinclair, 1940 – 2021

sir clive sinclair

Hello everyone,

This week ended with the incredibly sad news of the passing of Sir Clive Sinclair. He was one of the founding fathers of home computing and got many of us at Raspberry Pi hooked on programming as kids.

Join us in sharing your Sinclair computing memories with us on Twitter and our blog, and we’ll see you next week.

Peace,

Ashley
